I currently only have the 1992 PS set. I also taped ESB and ROTJ in widescreen off the Sci Fi channel. Mr. Coffee, I sypathize with you. I've long had a problem with digital things that I've only recently gotten over. Basically one to many asses rubbing the format into my face, coupled with having no problem with video outside of lack of widescreen. Also, tapes just survive better in my hand than easily-scratchable discs. I hated being forced into the formats, but widescreen and anime has made it a moot point.

As for preserving the SE, I've never liked it since ROTJ was in theatres. However, since the whole point of this site is preserving the version we love most, it seems natural to preserve the SE for those who, for some reason or another, prefer it.
