George Lucas has become a con-man and I do think that there is more likely some thing in the law in which a someone or a group could sue George Lucas for con.

A confidence trick or confidence game (also known as a bunko, con, flim flam, gaffle, grift, scam, scheme, or swindle) is an attempt to defraud a person or group by gaining their confidence.
I think in a court of law The '05,'06 and now the '08 DVD releases would be seen as Confidence tricks a.k.a scams.
The '06 dvds with the bad non-remastered transfers from old laserdisks is something taboo in mainstream media (specially coming from Lucas and ILM) and most people who work in media would more likely call it a scam.
This seems to fit the The '06 dvds:

You might be on to something mate. I think Lacas broke the grounds of false advertising with these DVDs on a number of occasions. Like the sticker for the '04 DVDs said "All 3 classic films digitally restored and remastered". Nowhere did he mention these were the SE or altered from theatrical prints in anyway. The '06 DVDs never said anything about the horrific quality of the OT. I doubt these '08 DVDs will say anything either.
