After the quote Lucas made to MTV, I'm convinced they are deliberately making them shitty. He hasn't all of sudden back-tracked on his views of "his" version of the OT (and, to me, it's unthinkable that Lucasfilm, Fox, or Jim Ward were the ones that decided on releasing the "Unaltered Trilogy" DVDs...we know who makes the final decision). He wants his precious 2004/SE/work-in-progress DVDs to be the standard, and how better to do it than to create an unfair competition. He can shut up people like us, basically by saying "they got what they wanted, they're just whiners and complainers who are never happy" while selling the same thing over again (2004) DVDs. And let's not forget that this move would corner and virtually eliminate the bootleg market. It's all shit. But I definitely think if people make a big enough stink, they will notice.
