I was told by a local processor, several years ago, that Kodak had stopped supporting the scanning equipment needed to produce the Photo CD. Local processor was keeping it going on their own. Last time I checked, several years ago now, they were still offering Photo CD's.
BTW, I have around 1000 images done by local processor on Photo CD and I could always improve the resulting scans somewhat by resetting white point/black point even tho the original slide exposures were spot on. I was paying between $1.25 to $1.75 each scan.

That are the ones with the different high resolution scans on it, right? Here in Switzerland you can only order a low resolution JPG Picture CD which is unusable for my needs. I would love to have the Kodak CD instead of scanning. It would be some kind of additional free backup too, I just added backup hard disks yesterday. I think that Kodak charged to much royalties, so that format never got accepted and the big warehouses sadly stopped soon offering it :-( greetings Markus >> >>Markus, >> >>The sad part of these scans being too dark is that I sent them out for >>a professional scan to a Kodak CD.
