Some film processing labs offer "pics on disks". Many of the labs
offering such services don't even provide any better quality than
what I can produce myself by using my inexpensive scanner.
If anyone knows of any good film processing labs in the US that will
provide high quality "pics on disks" at reasonable and competitive
prices, please post information.

Sam -
When I have my 35mm film developed, I select "[X] Picture CD" - They
scan 35mm at 1024 x 1536, and save the image as a 0-compression .JPG
so anybody with a browser can view it. Unfortunately, this option is
available only when developing a new roll, not for reprints. This is
NOT the same as the old Kodak "Photo-CD", which used .PCD format for
its images, requiring a special viewer.
As far as I can tell, all of the places that use a Kodak lab can get
this done. I've had it done it at both supermarket & drugstore 1-day
photo services, with the same results. Takes an extra day or two for
processing, and you do have to order 4 inch prints.
MY biggest complaint is that they do only 35mm and APX, but not 110.
I had a dozen rolls I shot in Australia, and I can't get them on CD.
