hmm... all i can say is i own the LD's (actually just finished watching ESB on my brand new 30" 16x9 tv... it doesnt look as good as anamorphic dvds, but it was good enough that i got lost in the story & forgot that i was watching it on obsolete technology...) and with Blockbuster around the corner and a friend with a dvd burner, i have the option of giving lucas my money or not. If they look notably better then the LD's, i might go out and buy them. If they're on par, i'll pay a visit to my friend. If they look worse, i say up yours to lucasfilm & stick with my LD's (while anxiously awaiting the X0Project results).
