Expodisks are snake oil.
Perhaps you could explain yourself a little more fully?

I agree that there are other tools I prefer to Expodisc's, such as the Whi-Bal card, due to it's ability to set a custom white balance or be used in post, and it being verified neutral as to color reproduction, but snake oil?

I also agree that, for most of us, pleasing color is more important than accurate color, but using a single click on a Whibal( for example) is a much faster work flow than any other method of doing it in post that I am aware of.
