Well, I've never really been a part of any Star Wars release, so this new blu-ray stuff doesn't really make me feel left-out at all. I actually don't own any of the movies on DVD (I just have the VHS copies) and I torrented the 2006 version of the OUT (the laserdisc transfers) so I wouldn't have to buy the whole set with the bastardized films in them and give any money to the powers-that-be.
I also torrented the GOUT, but for editing purposes only. That's the only reason I torrent ANY movie: so I can use them in video edits. My dad, apparently, is fine with that. I own the VHS Faces set for the OOT as well. I also have the Prequels and ROTJ FS SE on DVD. I'm hoping to obtain some OOT Fan Preservation someday.
This makes zero sense.
Your dad is okay with you torrenting moves for editing purposes, which pretty much everyone agrees is piracy. But he won't let you download a preservation of the GOUT even if you buy the GOUT because he says that is piracy?
Head asplode.
Well, he's more indirectly okay with it. I don't do it with his permission, but he's seen me edit them, asked how I got them, then says "okay." However, when I directly asked him permission to download the preservation, he said no. He lets me edit pirated films, but he won't let me get the most awesome Star Wars preservations ever... I'll make a point of that the next time I get close to him. Even if it means deleting the movies from my computer. The projects I'm working on will go bye-bye, if that's the case. Oh, well. I guess that'll give me some free time to record my own video to edit.
