I own a kodak shop, and even I've started stocking up on tri-x in all formats, after all why would anyone want to buy anything other than the name off Kodak. They could hardly have made a bigger mess of film and paper if they'd tried, now that movies are going digital it's going to be a niche market, thank god for Ilford and the east europeans. I'm going to keep supporting chris at Blanconegro, Foma are a good company despite some of the problems I've had with the 8x10 film, their paper is lovely. USE IT OR LOSE IT, seriously.
Regardless of what we feel about film it's hardly the sort of business a bank's going to look favourably upon, so I'm not real hopeful for the future of kodak film production. A sad day.
