I think the most important factor by far is money. If Lucas thinks he can earn more money off a proper OOT release than it takes to produce it in the first place, then it will come out at some point. Back in the day before the release of the SE, I vaguely remember reading on one of the SE fan sites (I think it was red4.net if anyone remembers that) that every single frame of the OOT was restored and scanned in very high resolution to be preserved on digital media for the future. Does anyone else have any recollection of this? If this is indeed correct, I have no doubts whatsoever that, sooner or later, we will get all the versions of the OOT we can wish for.
