I'm old enough to remember when RCA gave you Star Wars for free for buying a CED Videodisc player and Projecton tv combo. Someone at Lucasfilm has forgotten how the OT made a lot of people run out and buy a VCR or Laserdisc player just to watch them at home. Someone was certainly off their rocker when Phantom Menace was released on Laserdisc only in Japan, and the fan club was forced to withdraw their offer to sell them directly to fans.
