Default Fly Tying Kit for beginners

Hello all. I've been a freshwater angler for some time now and am ready
to try my hand at fly fishing. I live in North Georgia were there are
several trout streams and even a river within a 5-10 minute walk from
my house.
Anyways, this month I'll be headed to Bass Pro Shops to pick out fly
fishing gear but thought that in the meantime, I'd like to order a
beginners fly-tying kit, preferrably with an instructional DVD so I can
go ahead and learn the ropes of fly tying and have a few flies on me
before I get out on the water.
Something along these lines:

Anyone have this kit? Is it a good starter kit?
Between Tivo and DVD's, I don't even have a VCR hooked up anymore so
I'd really like something with a DVD as opposed to VHS tape.

Any recommendations on this kit or any others would be appreciated.
I'd like to keep the cost to under $50, as well.
Thanks.
