Chris have you had a good look at the Ilford catalogue of late? They aren't 
stupid, they are diversifying into all sorts of digital products and using 
their good name in film and paper to great advantage. I can see them as a niche 
producer of film products sure but i'll bet that in short time much of their 
revenue stream will be a product of non-film/chemical based sales.
