I talked to someone at Radius at Digital World this week who said that
they would be releasing the ReelMagic card for the Mac later this
summer. Price would be a little bit more than the PC version (which
is available now from Sigma Designs).

We have already published a few dozen CD-i Digital Video titles
that also play on the Reel Magic card. More are coming out in
Video CD format every month. They are features from Paramount,
MGM, Orion, PolyGram, and music video collections from PolyGram
as well.
