I don't think the Clone Wars has been a disaster at all, with the exception of the film. By releasing it in theaters, George broke a barrier between Star Wars the entertainment machine, and Star Wars the Film Franchise - this paved the way for the 3D novelty releases.

The one problem I have with TCW is that it takes away what little life the PT had - for all the complaints, and slight inconsistancies, when I watched RotS, I remember feeling a sense of completion. That feeling is kind of diminished.

However, I personally can't place blame - There are kids who LOVE TCW. I personally enjoyed the 3D conversion of TPM more than without it. And we live in a society built on capitalism, where you have to keep at it to continue to earn and make a mark.

If anything, I believe that rather than bitching about everything LFL does, we need to start a general campaign to change copyright laws, forcing film companies to submit a digital, lossless copy of every film ever made or that will be made in the future. Beyond that, not only should the original version be made available, but also any version that is made commercially available. With that in mind, Star Wars would need to be provided "Pre-ANH", with the crawl change, 97SE, 2004SE, BluRay, and then 3D. Stored Digitally, this wouldn't take up much space. And the Library of Congress would possess all of these films... I believe this law change could be pushed through as a "Protection of future inherited public properties"
