The Seattle Times: Seattle-based MOD is announcing its CD-burning kiosk for retailers, with Starbucks as its first customer, just days after Starbucks announced it was pulling such kiosks from its stores.
MOD Systems will probably face a few confused retailers as it makes its pitch. The short explanation: Starbucks phased out a first-generation system made by another company but will leave MOD Systems' kiosks at 10 coffee stores and three of its large-scale music stores, called Hear Music Coffeehouses.
