Note that the media ID of a disc is physically encoded into the side-to-side
meander of the track on the disc, therefore it comes from the glass master used
to press the plastic blank used to make the disc, so it will really only show
you who made the master or the machine that made the master, not who pressed
and/or coated the actual disc. They are often not the same company, and what
really counts is not who made the master, but the quality of the various
coatings. Many discs are made in China by companies that have bought masters or
mastering equipment from somebody else. Thus you need to take any information
the media ID may give you with many large fistfuls of salt.
