Abstract

Reviews commercial services offering CD-ROM and online hybrids designed to allow frequent updating of CD-ROM databases, the capability of linking to other databases and data banks, and the means of enabling pay as you go metering and secure sales of proprietary data. Focuses on the services provided by: Teleshuttle, which embeds a specialized software communications module in a conventional CD-ROM; NetAnswer for CD Answer, a comprehensive Internet and WWW software and services product; TMS Inc.'s MasterView Express image storage and retrieval database; Infosafe; CD-MAX; and products designed for CD-ROM and online direct selling catalogues; such as Connect Inc.'s Digital Production System and Digital Delivery's Catalog Builder 2.5. Concludes that CD-ROMs without online access are bound to be increasingly limited in future applications
