This is bound to be a scam. There is no fast way to learn
piano. Teaching methods have been refined over centuries. You get
out of it what you put into it in terms of practise.

So which websites are any good? What about the stuff linked from wikipedia;

I don't know the world's websites on Music. If you want to
learn piano, and be any good at it, you need a teacher. There are
some really good websites out there for theory, for instance, but
nothing can teach you piano "fast." We have centuries of keyboard
pedagogy experience. The methods have been developed over time by
trial and error. Teaching piano is now well understood, and changes
are small these days.
The best pianists, regardless of where they come from, come out
of an organised conservatory, for instance; the Royal Conservatory of
Music in Toronto. A teacher who can reach the students is also of
great value. Not all teachers are the same, of course. You sometimes
have to search for a good one.
All I was saying was that no one can teach you "fast." You get
something, but you have no skills or knowledge of music.

Which costs money.

Which is not my main objection to sites like these. Fast may work if
your brain just happens to be heavily optimized for this kind of stuff.
Otherwise it won't.

My main objection to this type of sites, is that they are very much
geared at 'popular' stuff. Evergreens, hits, Christmas, whatever.
I can hardly imagine that non main stream music which can be played by
beginners doesn't exist.

This particular site goes one step further. They claim that one should
learn to play the piano, in order to become more popular.
I also get the impression that one is required to install special
software. In my opinion generic stuff should do.

Lack of knowledge or skills limits freedom.
