Oppo Ceasing production

Guys, I read in one of the other forums that Oppo is closing due to lawsuits and copyright infringement issues. Apparently, the plan is close down Oppo and create a new company.  I guess only time will tell, if this is true.  

I was reading that they spent considerable capital on investing and co producing the 4K chip and ultimately it set them up for a long term loss they decided was too much and therefore are closing prematurely in order to maintain service for existing customers for as long as they could. 

Also that the investment in 4K was so high that they were forced to diversify their product line (headphones, Bluetooth audio  and DACs) to subsidize it but ultimately it wasn’t strong enough of supplemental sales.

Still got em, for now. But they're going, fast.

I've got to plug Marston Records.  Ward Marston (world famous remastering engineer for 78s) has a small company which limits CD production to 1000 units each with very extensive research booklets.  He sells CDs at $18 each.  They generally consist of 1900-1950 recordings by opera singers and pianists.  Each CD may contain $50,000 value of 78s or even unissued recordings from the vaults such as Edison's 300 trial opera recordings on discs from 1910-1914.  

These will never appear on streaming without his permission.  He also remasters for major labels, NAXOS label and the defunct Romophone (similar as his Marston label, different recordings).   

It would be a terrible and historic loss to be unable to retrieve (enjoy) the greatest serious music recordings of the first half of the 20th century through CD reproduction.
