First 'Pioneers' like the Asian Bootleggers at LOOK in China, their resellers and their ilk then TR47 or his buddies made the DVDr's of the Original Laser Disc (Laserman's name will soon be added to this list
) and finally Digitalfreaknyc and I offered them on the forum either both for free or at very reasonable cost and now with all of the support we've had from all the Torrent seeders and uploaders soon EVERYBODY will have there hands on a set of the original Trilogy on DVDr - this of course will help preserve the movie that some of us watched in the theater (I was 4 and it was also my first movie - so I only really remember things like the GIANT Coke and all the cool Space battles, robots and the first pretty lady I ever saw..Leia 
) or that our Dad's made us watch on their high-tech VHS or Laserdiscs every sunday..... ANYWAY.
Just like the Farscape, Enterprise and Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda Fan's have saved those shows from obscurity.
We've SAVED the Original Star Wars Trilogy WITHOUT the help of George Lucas, Lucasfilm, Fox or anyone else it was us the FANS.
I just proud to be a member of this community and very happy to say that I've made MANY great online friends here and I hope this forum continues to grow and with all the active users and all of the newbies (welcome home guys!) we've got a strong community here now.
Thanks for being here and May the Force be with us all.
