So Harmy's upcoming Despecialized versions will be the same as the upcoming Blu-Ray GOUT except for the fact that that Harmy's will be 1080p and the GOUT will be 720p? Just want to make sure I have the details correct.

One comes from a hi-def source, and one comes from a poor transfer of a laserdisc master.  Yes, DJ is doing amazing things with the GOUT, but it will be quite easy to tell the two apart, especially on a moderately large screen.

The appeal of GOUT is that it is entirely OT material.  The appeal of the despecialized versions is that the transfers are of the highest quality.  Both are fantastic and not in any way duplicate efforts.
