Steve, Couldn't be exactly the same as some of the speeds are different. Supra 100, 400, 800. Royal Gold 100, 200, 400, 1000?.
I think they are dumping Royal Gold because it doesn't sell well enough. Keeping Gold and Supra. I personally never use Royal Gold, have always used Portra, Supra and Fuji Reala. So, I'm not directly feeling the loss. My big concern is that we are seeing further migration away from film and towards digital. Eventually, film is going to be expensive to buy and expensive to get processed.
