I see. I think maybe the difference is enthusiasm? If someone is going into it thinking "It would be really helpful for my work or business to learn Japanese" versus "Japanese is cool. I would really like to immerse myself in

I would argue the exact opposite, but it's because it's not only just the product, but also the customer service and experience. Switching from Amazon to a similar service is a huge risk to me. Will I get the same customer service

Buyer beware however, I'd say 90% of the stuff out there is rubbish. Like you said it is "greek style" but it's thicker only as a result of adding thickening agents, and a far-cry of actual authentic greek yogurt, Dannon

I think this type of thinking is cynical and unhelpful. We complain that compiler technology is not keeping pace, then when they put in god knows how many hundreds of hours of work improving, we complain when we might have to spend a few to

Ford's quality went up when they acquired Volvo's designs. I think the best car they make is the Focus ST. It's a good seller in Europe as well.
