Do these files have unaltered video, just as they were shown on Cinemax? Because I don't recall seeing anyone complain that they looked bad on Cinemax. I don't expect them to look as good as if they were released on a dual-layer Blu-Ray disk, but hopefully they looked pretty solid on Cinemax.

If the video is unaltered, then I guess we have our straight captures of the Star Wars trilogy (well, the 2004 set anyhow) and the prequels in HD finally.

This means that they can be preserved for watching in HD from further possible changes in the Star Wars 30th Anniversary set (after which, they may or may not be released on high definition DVD without the 30th Anniversary changes). And it also provides a relatively high-quality source for use in restoration of the unaltered original trilogy. So, who has the Blu-Ray burners?
