[bionet.general] GenBank Distribution media

REISNER@dmb.csiro.au (12/13/89)

We've been using 8mm catridges (2.3 Gbytes) for 18 months with good results.
I understand that GenBank uses the medium for its own backups.

	Are there enough GenBank subscribers to make it worthwhile for 
GenBank to distribute the database on that medium?
