This is bad news, we were just enjoying a good run with them. Have they
given any reason why?

Subject: arsclist Kodak is stopping CD-R manufacture !?



I received this tonight from American Digital (www.am-dig.com) one of the 
companies I buy a lot from...

----------

Looks like our oldest and longest active CD-R will soon
disappear forever. Many of you have heard by now that
Kodak will stop manufacturing their entire line of CD-Rs.
A nice disc and a sad day for all the Kodak fans.

----------

I bought some Quantegy CD-Rs (gold) to have a different brand so that the 
two copies I'm making for a project were on different brands of discs. When 
I read the manufacturer code on the disc it turns out they were 
manufactured by Mitsui. At least I got two different product runs
(hopefully).

Who else makes gold discs? Will Kodak sell their line to someone else? I 
like Mitsuis, but I want another line of premium gold discs.

Thanks!

AAARRRGH,

Richard
