I have a couple of queries about CD-ROM and standard maintenance media
charges and wondering if anyone has heard any official information from
Sun. Currently a Site will pay a media charge per architecture plus a
right to use cost. Will sun:

1) Only have *one* media charge if all architectures are supplied on the
   one CD-ROM?

2) Be reducing the media charge, since the cost of producing a CD-ROM is
   cheaper than producing the 1/4" tape versions?

If Sun just do 1) above it could make the CD-ROM player pay for itself
within a couple of years for a hetrogenous site.
