I think that's the only way, the problem is finding the time. I have just finished work now (it's 8:58pm) having started at 9am. I really want to be fluent in German (and indeed do loads of things) but time is the major commodity.
Sadly, I don't get any German TV shows, my best chance is the Internet and the German music I listen to. It's not a bad start though, I already know far more than I did. The thing is that nothing beats practice, and the only way I am really going to do that, is by going to Germany and talking to people. Next week is the one of the only weeks (I may be back in Koeln in November) where I will be in Germany and can improve my German. It's frustrating to know that if I lived in Germany for three months or so, I probably would be fluent.
