Underworld, Halloween, Evil Dead, etc) but only in the cases where I own the official DVDs I use to make them (and I keep mine to myself). However, as Moth3r and Jay have pointed out before, taking material from official DVD releases and rereleasing it via P2P, torrents, PiF, etc, is illegal and not tolerated on the boards.
I'm not meaning to have a go at you. And by all means if you ever do this for yourself then great (as long as you own the DVDs), I just don't want to see you get into trouble. Still, if you have any unreleased/unavailable documentaries for Robocop, make a disc of those and let us see it.

This project is meant to be a personal fan compilation of the best materials from both releases with a few added bits. The Auxilliary extras discs are for distribution.
I was going to do the 2-Disc compilation from both release and then a third disc for even more bonus features unavailable on both. Basically all the documentaries and such featured on television and laserdisc for the third disc. And for those who own both the Criterion and current MGM release (I own the Region 2 Japanese NTSC Special Edition), the third disc would be in the same vein as the ALIEN Appendice I release.
I figure I could call the third disc/stand-alone-extras a "RoboCop: The Auxilliary Part I". Probably make it dual layered and in a slimpak...
