Mr. Ron's Music Review
Mr Rons Music is a company created by the piano instructor, Mr. Ron Worthy. Mr. Worthy's main piano teaching product is his online ebook, Tricks of the Trade. He also has a couple other products including the "Play Piano Like a Pro" DVD course (one for beginners and another for intermediate to advanced pianists)
The course itself is not huge or comprehensive by any stretch, but works well as a good supplemental piano learning method. We weren't exactly thrilled to find that the course is only available online in html format and that there really isn't too much material to download and work with.

Features
Mr. Ron's online members area features a fair bit of piano theory, exercises, sound examples as well as several movie clips that will help you along. The video quality disappointed us, as it seemed on par with footage taken with a webcam.
Included with your piano mini-course is some unique bonus software called the "Karaoke Piano Player". While it's not the most intuitive software you'll ever use, it is helpful none-the-less. Other bonuses include some free sheet music from a major distributor and a music dictionary.
Support
Mr. Ron Worthy gives his students good learning support. You can contact him using his personal phone number and email address, and he also has a student forum, which is a nice addition.
Ease of Use
N/A
Setup/Compatibility
Because the large majority of the Mr Rons Music piano course is browser-based, it is compatible with both PCs and Macs.
Warranty
Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to get a refund if you change your mind about Mr. Ron's music products. We would advise contacting Mr. Ron directly.
Price
Mr. Ron's Tricks of the Trade multimedia ebook is merely OK in value when you compare to private piano lessons.We still wish it wasn't so incredibly expensive for what you get.
Conclusion
As a good downloadable piano lesson course, Mr. Ron's Tricks of the Trade mini-course is decent value. However, on the whole we did prefer Rocket Piano for it's better teaching methods, higher production quality, and a much lower price point.
