Oh, so somewhere this went from a simple little, not-as-much needed as ANH-edit, to a complete overhaul. But isn't the 2011 ESB already 90% perfect? Anyway, I'm sure this edit will be great!

Since the Blu-Rays suck, everyone should just give Adywan the $100 bucks they would've paid for the Blu set, so he can finish up this and ROTJ, then do the prequels too. I was hoping Lucas would give us a perfect, no plot-holes, error-free version of the Saga. But since that seems like it will never happen, Ady will have to pick up the slack. I haven't even seen ANHR, yet, but just going by word-of-print (instead of mouth) and 005's Google images, it seems awesome!

The unfortunate thing is that in order to legally HAVE these movies in HD, you have to OWN an HD copy of the films. I'm not even sure how ady was able to get a legal copy of ESB in HD, but that's none of our concern anyways. For all we know, a Fox exec could've given it to him - but regardless, I like to believe that they KNOW of ady's efforts, and support them because they keep the interest in Star Wars going. However, if (as a fan-edit community) we all decide to boycott the Blu-Rays in support of ONLY ady's films, I can guarantee that it will only make hell for ady. By all means donate to ady, but also buy the Blu-ray - if you decide NOT to buy the Blu-ray and ONLY get ady's films, that's a personal choice, but don't go around posting it everywhere because then adywan (and possibly even all other faneditors) will start getting in to legal trouble.

Regardless of the poor choices made with the Blu-ray, at least buy it in order to have the legal right of also owning ady's HD versions.
