I still don't understand why people would want the older quality versions when the better versions are on Blu-Ray now. The tapes are still out there if you want to see the earlier versions. If an artist puts his name on something he wants it to represent his original vision because he has to answer to criticism of that art. Then everybody calls you a terrible person for it.

"Better" is a very subjective term. Not everyone thinks that the modern effects and other changes are better.
