The Jacksonville, IL-based plant made compact discs starting in early 1987, after a $21 million conversion from vinyl records to CDs was completed by Capitol-EMI. Optical disc manufacturing continued until 2004, when EMI decided to outsource disc manufacturing to Cinram for the US - however the facility was retained for use in distribution and warehousing.
