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

[Jerome Hartke <jhartke@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Color book standards preceded the public standards, and are not under
them.

CD-DA interchange was first defined in the Red Book that is regularly
revised by Philips. IEC 908 came later and has not been revised.

CD-ROM interchange was first defined in the Yellow Book that is also
revised by Philips from time-to-time. ISO/IEC 10149 came several years
later and has undergone one revision.

CD-R interchange is defined in Orange Book Part II. There is no public
standard.

ISO 9660 is a standard for volume and file structure, not for
interchange.
