sooner or later, someone is going to throw them up on an HD scanner, make high-quality HD masters and release them as bootlegs - either for free online, or on BD-R or other digital media sold at conventions. How do I know that? Well, I've actually had bootleg HD copies of the "special edition" Star Wars films for a couple years now, mastered from European HD satellite
How does "I've got a copy of the SE from someone who TIVO'd it when it was on TV" lead directly to "A private collector with a print is bound to get it professionally scanned"?
