If you truly don't believe that they could cover the cost of releasing the OT on DVD, you are kidding yourself. Most fans of StarWars would buy both editions; there are 50,000 peopl who have signed the petition asking for the OT, they would buy them. Look at LOTR, they realeased at least two different versions of that and all of them sold like hot cakes. They would make a bundle out of it. GL has never said anything about not making the OT on DVD because of the cost; he knows it would make millions. The decision was due to his his bizzarre artistic objections which don't make any sense...
