I don't think you can "study enough" to fully enjoy an opera unless
one learns the language itself.  Hearing an opera in English makes
the difference between (hopefully, but not always) pretty musick
and heart throbbing melodrama.  Lacking that, English subtitles are
the next best.  The only problem with Super-Text is that the text is
too high above the stage, placing it nearly out of the line of sight
for those in the front rows.
