Dear all, I'm looking for two movies: "Mukhsin" and "Ada Apa Dengan Cinta" on DVD. Do you know if they're available? I found only a PAL format for the first one and a soundtrack CD for the second. Thanks. Farhad Moshiri Audiovisual Librarian University of the Incarnate Word San Antonio, Texas

Same here. We used to get a lot of requests for Rosetta Stone and had same difficulties with technical issues as well as inconsistency between what they said we could do with the individual software titles and what ended up could be done due to contract language (used only in the library at on

I just want to echo the same sentiments as Julie. After getting burned on the technical issues of the individual Rosetta Stone software titles, we looked into getting an electronic subscription. They gave us a quote of something like $200/subscription for 250 – 500 people in which 1 person = 1 subs

We too get many requests for Rosetta Stone. There are a variety of reason we don't purchase it, the primary one being the exorbitant cost (you cannot purchase the individual kits for circulation -it is too difficult technically to uninstall, reinstall...). However, we have tried out Tell Me More, a

Sadly like many foreign and independent films there is no US distributor which does not mean nobody owns it. In the case of Red Sorghum has been gone for many years as has the original distributor.
