The material was originally filmed by reporter Henri Chambon, whose contacts were broad enough for a total view on the news in France in 1994 and 1995. The limitation of one reporter was due to copyrights (money) so it happened certain small news aspects didn't reach the disc content!
With Philips stepping out of the CD-i business in 1996, there was no option for "Le Journal Interactif 1996". TF1 didn't want to carry the costs so stepped away from CD-i (a little contradiction I believe because the costs were very low; it looks like a change in strategy). The Multimedia division put its money in Titus, instead of producing more CD-i titles via TF1 Enterprises. In 1996, TF1 owned 7% of Titus. And with this another CD-i secret is uncovered: Now I know who was behind the french game "L'Affair Morlov": TF1. TF1 funded the adventure game which was developed at CPIO, and was supposed to be a french title only. Philips wasn't available to publish the title anymore, and Titus demanded a broader release to cover costs. We've got new names to contact! Unfortunately the english translations didn't go without troubles, and the final release of the Morlov Affair is one with some differences between the french and english adaptions.
