Last verified 2026-09-05. ADVERSARIAL VERIFICATION (2026-06-14): Original entry had the two Pimsleur tiers crossed. Independent 2026 source (myelearningworld.com Pimsleur pricing) confirms Premium (single-language) = $19.95/month (the original $20.95 figure was actually the All Access rate) and All Access (all 51 languages) = $20.95/month (originally recorded as null, but it IS confirmable). Both corrected. All Access annual also published at $164.95/year (~$13.75/mo) but the plan is recorded here on a monthly basis. The 'Starting at $150' marketing line on the homepage refers to a one-time single-level audio purchase, not a subscription. Re-verified 2026-09-02 against the live pricing page; published figures unchanged. Cross-checked against fluentu.com.
