Hello everyone! I am from Italy, I hope you can forgive my simple English.
I downloaded the three main discs from this set back in October 2004 through Bittorrent, quite possibly from Suprnova.
Then, I made the stupid mistake of burning those onto three Fujifilm discs, and not to keep any backups (they seemed fine discs, never had a coaster...)
A few weeks ago I found out that each disc has lost an average of 350 Mb of data towards the end...
I know I should be content with my 2006 GOUT discs (which I bought, along with the 2004 SE discs, and the VHS SE tapes), but I'm terribly missing the THX intro, the menus, the easter eggs and the commentary track. These are really beautiful discs, and I love how they were made.
I managed to find the .torrent files for the main discs by googling "star wars" pre ld rip; I joined those and, through a couple of leechers, I was able to recover some of the lost data.
Unfortunately, there have been no seeds in sight for days (well, years, I'm afraid...)
Since Darth Hade, in the previous post, was suggesting to re-torrent these discs, I was wondering if anybody reading this could help me recover the lost parts by joining these torrents.
I'm at 95.6% for ANH, 95.3% for ESB, and 91.6% for ROTJ (bigger piece size, unfortunately), that should be no more than 300 Mb per disc.
I would like to post the torrent hashes I'm on, but I'm afraid it could be against the board rules, in some way. On the other hand, all the torrents I could find for these discs have no seeds, and the leechers have far less data, so it shouldn't be too difficult to find me...
My gratitude for this will be expressed by keeping these torrents alive until I can't see any leechers for a long time.
I know I'm in no position to ask a favour like this, since my mistake was simply too big, and I'll understand if no one will grant my humble request :-)
Well, thanks for reading!
JJ
