Coinciding with the release of our Kodak Photo CD brochure a couple of months ago, a rumor was started that Kodak is dropping the Kodak Photo CD technology. In an attempt to investigate this rumor, we spoke with a number of Eastman Kodak staff members, and reviewed the recent Kodak Photo CD product literature and press releases. We summarized our conclusions in the August 15, 1998 issue of RLG DigiNews:
