I agree!
But note that what he says about Ektachrome is valid - if you want
longevity, you have to choose your film carefully: Kodachrome does better
than Ektachrome in dark storage, but for projected images the reverse is the
case.
But in either case it seems film is more dependable that CD.

I am still recording a zero percent failure rate on my Kodachrome slides
dating back 40+ years.
Perhaps Mr Reichmann has a few things to learn :-)
