Why ANYONE who has respect for themselves, other than those in San Francisco, would use Fuji's garish colours escapes me completely. (San Francisco, a lovely city in which I once lived, has lots of fog. Fuji film does fine on grey, nasty, days where it seems almost normal. On normal days, it yields prints best left in the gutter on 42nd Street.) In any event, Kodak was forced to divest themselves of their processing arm as a settlement on an ANTI-TRUST action: at the time, they owned too much of the film, paper, processing, and chemical business to make our fascist regulators happy, so it went out to a private company. Years later, a different regime of fascist regulators determined it would be okay for Kodak to control Kodachrome processing, so they bought it back. Spare me. Kodak does okay, now, with Kodachrome processing. Love the stuff - -- as an earlier poster properly noted, 'Kodachrome and Leica belong together'.
