[net.audio] CD competition

beau@hounx.UUCP (#J.SEAGRAVES) (09/25/84)

Wrong folks - there are several CD plants in the US.  One or two are in
Ohio... others are being built (as you read this).

Dick Grantges asks about the possibility of a 
domestic CD pressing plant:  the British firm
Nimbus has recently got one going in Monmouth,
Wales.  There is a full report in the July issue
of Gramophone.  Usually in these sorts of things,
us Yanks are a few months/years behind the Brits.
Patience, Dick -- the monopoly is beginning to
crumble.
