I actually purchased it from Coppola Vineyards after I emailed then asking about anything of interest movie-wise they were looking to get rid of. Lucky for me they had one lying around.
If I can be of help to anybody on this endeavour, feel free to email me or pm.

Ever considered doing an edit of The Godfather Saga, to rearrange the flashbacks into one long sequential narrative?
Coppola actually did this once for a TV airing and people loved it, but later he said that it was meant to be seen with "the flashbacks", so any hope of seeing it on DVD is probably lost.

I need to clarify again. I just puled it off the shelf to take a look at it, and it is indeed the complete trilogy on six tapes.
"Under the supervision of dierector Francis Francis Ford Coppola, the Three Godfather films have been interwoven into one production. This deluxe, leatherbound set also includes "The Godfather Family: A Look inside" and a comprehensive booklet filled with photos and never before seen archive materials from Coppola's private collection."
I'm biting my nails debating on opening the tapes to rip them, but I don't have that great of a video card, but I do have a S-VHS vcr. I have two 120gig hard drives for storage, and my C: drive is 80 gig. I'm fairly good at ripping and burning DVD's, but ripping these tapes would indeed be a project for me. Maybe if the process could be explained a little, I could take a step and crack open the tapes.
I myself would love to have this on DVD. I break out into hives at the thought of having to watch a VHS tape anymore.
