I gave up a week or so ago. I've been studying Pimsleur + Michel Thomas, doing Cyrillic and other vocab on Anki and watching some videos.

To cut a long story short, RS Russian is a complete waste of time. RS Korean is even worse.

No No No Rosetta Stone Korean is not a waste of time. Do your Pimsleur Comprehensive I and II first. Then you will see the Rosetta Stone makes more sense. Also RS is not supposed to be easy.

It's not about easy or difficult, it's about it being too slow and inefficient.

The marketing strategy sounds great, but in reality adults don't learn like children, and for me it just doesn't make sense to spend hours learning what should take minutes.

I learnt Korean via books and the Sogang online course, and no one I know has ever come close to getting beyond a very basic level by using RS.
