I am currently being threatened by my former employer (they are "compelled [to] take action against [me]") for the way I am running ANN, and how this allegedly violates my employment contract with them ("interfere _in any manner_ with any business relationship between the Company and any of its customers or business partners"). This might entail drastic changes to the relative freedom of speech ANN has always allowed its visitors, or ANN might close down altogether. Updated 10:00 CET.

Legal threats? : Comment 437 of 1057 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Nate Downes on 06-Apr-2004 23:42 GMT | In reply to Comment 431 (Interesting): Kodak had major losses...
IN IT'S CAMERA DEPARTMENT
It actually had the largest year on record for film production, processing. Shoot, Super8 film (easily considered Kodak's smallest film market) sold more units last year than on any year on-record.
So, Kodak did the smart thing, they are reorganizing to eliminate the areas they are weakest, namely cameras. Kodak has not been #1 for cameras in almost half a century. By shelving camera production to focus on support mechanisms (film, CCD's, memory, processing, Lens, etc) they are much more profitable.
So no, film is not dead. Far from it. |
