At the World of Commodore show last Friday (Nov 30), Commodore was
showing off their CDTV thingie... a CD player (built by Sony, looks
like Sony) that also happens to be an Amiga inside.

Anyway, a guy in Ottawa announced he'd turn your tape (or whatever) into
5,000 CD's for $7500 Canadian.  That's about $1.25 U.S. apiece.

(For my computer, I'd rather have a DAT tape, but I realize tapes are
more expensive than CD's to produce in bulk.)
