I am honestly really surprised that we aren't seeing ads already. I mean, it is now just about a month away. I mean, they are shooting this release in the foot if they don't notify the general public (the non-Star Wars nerds) about this set. But, maybe low sales equals "No one wants the OOT."
I'm thinking that you may be right with the summation that "low sales=no one wants the OOT". This tactic would seem to be in line with what Lucas said on MTV.com and gives more credence to the idea that Lucas is dealing with us from a stacked deck.
In the thread on Leonard Maltin's response to one of our OT.com co-members, Maltin says "that [Lucas] tends to do exactly as he pleases", but I just sent off a batch of emails to Fox and Lucasfilm just to have done my part.

I really wish we could all just legally claim perpetual license to own any future SW releases free of charge since the majority of us all have purchased enough copies to effectively own stock in the franchise. Who else agrees?

If Lucas would just give the market what it wanted, we wouldn't need to even fantasize about perpetual license, and he might get even richer in September than he will anyway.
