Re: Question - Color vs Sound
I think the single most important distinction between the implementation of color vs sound is the difference between what was a change in the asthetics of a film's production vs a change in the technology of a film's exhibition.

Re: Angry Telegrams to Mack Sennett
Chris, I'm pretty sure I have in storage here a USB-based outboard ZIP drive you're welcome to if you think it would help read your damaged discs. You can email me at david@alldayentertainment.com if you're interested and let me know your address. I don't have anything to add to the discussion, sorry.
