The only way you are going to find out is to try a couple of rolls for yourself. Random subjective opinions from the internet won't tell you what you need to know.

Random subjective opinions from the internet won't tell you what you need to know.Sooooo the question of whether Delta 400 can deliver the goods, and if so, should I just get started now... and learn this stuff? or is there even a remote possibility Kodak Alaris would ever sell off it's brands if it comes down to folding up shop? Thoughts?
Kodak Alaris has a really big stake in the film photography business.
No here in the UK all limited companies have to make a return which eventually gets published, this includes for example individual subcontractors as I was for several years. Thus with a bit of digging anyone could find out my turnover and profit in those years.
The only real way to hide things is through off shoring which is why it has become so controversial here in the UK.
Unless you have insider information about the contractual arrangement between Kodak Alaris and Eastman Kodak, in which case you're probably violating a non-disclosure agreement by commenting on it here, that statement is unsupportable. It's not known to the public whether, if Eastman Kodak ceased to exist, Kodak Alaris could source product from one or more other manufacturers and continue to sell it under the same Kodak Alaris brand.Unfortunately, Kodak Alaris is tied to Eastman Kodak in a way that cannot be broken. If Eastman Kodak goes down, they will take Alaris' film business with them...
Perhaps because, unlike how things have been perverted in the U.S., there's a recognition that corporate entities aren't people and have no rights not explicitly granted to them by law. Therefore, in exchange for liability limits, they're required to disclose certain information. Makes sense.Why does the UK public have any right to a private person or private company's finances?...

Irrelevant to your previous post....Who here believes that a Kodak formulation can be transplanted to such a sub contractor?...

A similar non-germane rhetorical question would be "who here believes the Polaroid name on Chinese junk would sell product?"
The actual film products Kodak is currently making are their best ever, and fill a niche nobody else currently does. I don't want a substitute product under that label!
I think that if Eastman Kodak goes under and actually quits making film, no one else can keep up with the demand.
I know that sounds odd but I don't think the rest of the film producing companies coat enough film between them to make up what would be lost if Kodak goes away. I also seriously doubt that they could ramp up very quickly to fill that gap.
Do the coating machines have to keep running for Kodak Alaris even if Eastman Kodak does finally crash? Maybe the arrangement with Kodak Alaris leaves them no choice.
I for one hope we don't have to find out. Like Drew, I like Kodak film.
