I just created an account here specifically to communicate about the 2.1 purist edition. I AM SO STOKED!!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!! I'm dying to see this!
Hal 9000: I saw last year where you wrote
"But on my network, with family who use it constantly, it's near impossible to get these DVDs up on Rapidshare (or file sharing site X).
If anyone would be willing to upload these DVDs in 100 MB archived chunks on Rapidshare for me..."
I have oodles of bandwidth. I only have one housemate, and we have BOTH a cable connection and a DSL connection (I work in IT, so I need lots of bandwidth at home). I would LOVE to help out with uploading. I'll PM you.
Seriously, if I hadn't have found out about the Purist LotR, I was ready to start learning everything about vid editing and dvd authoring to make my own. LOL
