Whether or not its assets were actually sold to Cassette Productions is currently a mystery. * Its clients appear to have been largely family-oriented and/or centered around Greater Los Angeles. * This is possibly the only duplicator to have a joint venture with a home video distributor; Goldrix Entertainment, which was a joint venture with [[Goldstar Entertainment, Inc.\|Goldstar Video]].
