Hi Roy,
I just checked out my Kodak Golds, and you're right, they are Kodak
Japan. While I was at it, I also checked out two gold Maxell disks, and
one was Kodak Japan, and the other was Hitachi/Maxell.
Some of my Fuji disks are also not made by them... So who the heck
knows at this point what to trust.
