In the second reference, Wilhelm's rather mediocre-to-poor fade rates
for dye-sub 
prints ought to quiet the claims made by many  dye-sub advocates
who--without 
supporting 
data--have often asserted they have outstanding fade resistance.
Kodak's Easy Share 
dye sub seems to be the exception (i.e., has pretty good stability).
