Well, his testimonies may be true. If you read the whole story, he's not an overnight success, I think he was just the right person at the right place, at the right time...

Looks spammy one for me, he is asking for e-mail then promising not to
distribute them but you'll receive many adverts from people you don't know!

What makes you think that?

You can choose whether to believe him - personally I have never seen any evidence at all that you'll receive any adverts as a result of giving him your address.

Here's an idea: Sign up for a free Gmail account for this purpose, if that worries you

How about the fact that changing his salesletter more than doubled his sales in one day? His business was years in the making, but he still had to put the right pieces to work for him to make it happen.

I'm cutting the number of entries to 50, so you'll now have a 2% chance of winning

I've seen similar websites advertising guides on how to increase your vertical jump height, learn how to mod guitar effects pedals. The format is the same, with all the information in one long, scroll-down-the-column page. The only way I know these things are legitimate are through word of mouth (meaning reviews from people who have tried them). If everything checks out on that end, then I would be comfortable with giving money to purchase the product. But at first glance, I am very wary of these kinds of pages, especially since there's so much "selling" of the products as you keep scrolling down. Testimony after testimony, lots of highlighting, bolding, all caps, underlines.

You say he's genuine, but without your testimony, I can't tell much except that the website looks like it's trying too hard to sell me something. And I tend not to like that.

The similar sites I've seen:
vertical jump
When 6 Inches of Vertical Jump in 60 Days... Is Just Not Enough!***************
In search of great guitar tone? - Modify your guitar effect pedals to sound like boutique 'high dollar' effect pedals!

I had the links to the sites I mentioned, but I don't have enough posts to put them in here.

Just going by what I've read from the links above, I think it's an inspiring story if true. If he's earned what he claims to have earned that's a great marketing ploy. I don't really know if I want to learn Piano though; I'm in this for the shuffle

The website looks amateurish. If it were updated and made to look professional (read: non-spamy) I'd take it more seriously.
