The article was referring to cd-only transports, ans yes very few are still manufacturing them today. Given that the majority of transports go into mass market products which are more focused on stuff like DVD video and compatiblity with the various compressed formats, it's easy to see why.
Philips stopped transports?
I heard that philips have stopped selling (or even producing) cd transports is that true?
