Martin, with respect, I have to say these issues don't seem very compelling to me in the light of current events. I simply 
can't muster up the will to go find all the info. I've been obsessively pursuing this stuff for years and I simply have 
conclusions in my head, without footnotes and references. It's also not my battle, I have no vested interest in seeing one 
ink become more successful than another, so I'm stepping back. If someone really wants to find out for themselves what's 
going on here, without bias, there is a lot of information out there, particularly in the archives of the Epson/Leben list and 
the Piezography list.
For starters, I'd turn your attention here-
http://www.greenspun.com/bboard/q-and-a.tcl?topic=Inkjet%20Quadtone%20Printing
This was the first list, to my knowledge, devoted to quad printing. It started back in 1999, before Piezograghy even existed, 
Lysonic quads were barely out, and MIS the only ink we were working with. It's been inactive for a long time and only had a 
few posts, why it still exists on a server somewhere is beyond me. Quad posts on the Leben list go back even farther.
The other thing that can be done is to simply use whatever materials provide the most rewarding prints for the individual, 
without finding it necessary to run down the alternatives with half truths and baseless suppositions.
Good luck,
Tyler
