I have been told, by knowledgeable parties (not mediastreet employees 
either) that the new mediastreet glossy and semigloss media  work fine 
with pigmented inks (they are meant fro the Generations inks)..  My 
source indicated they will even work with the MIS VM set...

I just received samples of both media and shall be trying them out with 
the MIS VM set...

There may also be a glossy media produced in roll form by Ilford which 
will work well with the same inksets.. I am already in contact with 
Ilford on this.. and trying to get some samples..

Should I assume there would be some interest in the results?
