I just got to the shader section, and now this came up :( What do I do now?

Then you go and learn Open GL :D

That looks like it is only the tutorials that are not free. You can find tutorials anywhere. I took a quick gander and found people who recommended:

or
http://www.chadvernon.com/blog/resources/managed-directx-2/

Apparently this one is pretty good too:

Finally, I've heard lots about a guy called Evil Steve that wrote some really good tutorials. He may be worth googling.

better yet, learn something cross platform like OpenGL or SFML/SDL if you prefer higher level.

Haha, I remember the exact same thing happening to me when I looked into DirectX.

Like many of the suggestions, my solution was to go learn OpenGL. Cross-platform and lacks the needless complexity of some of the DirectX procedures.

DirectX has dokumentation and examples that are good.

Aswell as there are more than one tutorial site out there!

Gamedev.net is allso a good place to look at.

Will I be missing anything by doing a DirectX9 tutorial as opposed to DirectX11? I know DX11 has tesselation(spelling?) support, but I doubt I'll need that for awhile
