Maybe you hold an interest in Philips Media and the many development houses set up to cater for CD-i if so then this is the forum.

CD-i Launch Date ?

Post by Bas » Wed May 11, 2011 9:40 am

CD-i was launched in 1991. That's 20 years ago. Does anyone know/remember the exact date when CD-i was launched in the market?

Google tells me it's December 3 1991 (various sources) (or November 2 in 1 source). And April 1992 in the UK (1 source).

I'm planning not to let it pass in silence ;)
