Yes, Kodak's Cinesite lists Ampex's DST as one of their peripherals used in long-term storage of digital imagery. cinesite.com:80/cinesite/creative.html This location provides some background on Cinesite. "Established by the Eastman Kodak Company in 1992, Cinesite is the first company to offer complete digital production services in Europe and the United States. With custom-designed facilities in London and in the heart of Hollywood, Cinesite has consolidated its position as a state-of-the-art digital imaging company, having played a major role in more than 100 films..." To see the list of equipment, look under the "technical/tools/peripheral" area. You'll also see a lot of Silicon Graphics workstations. cinesite.com:80/tech/tools.html#periph "Long term storage and transmittal of image data is via several magnetic tape formats. The highest speed tape drives are Ampex DST, next are Metrum VHS format digital tape drives and slowest are Exabyte drives."
