And yes, I basically play pit bull for a living. Well I did.

So I call Rosetta Stone corporate after a truly interesting phone call. Don't bother until after 9.30

Now, what you may want to know is that I used to design call centers, among other things, so I know how these things work.

Neither here nor there.

But - and this is the interesting thing - that $20 dollars between the hard copy and the online version? According to phone support, if you buy the online version, you don't own the program. If you buy the hard copy, you do.

I was interested in their various tiers because I was curious about their Welsh tuts. I know Welsh, taught it to myself once I was told it was a difficult language. It's phonetic, not difficult.

Kindly please let people know that Rosetta Stone is a bit iffy as a company.
