I don't think you have done the math I just did. If I remember right, the DVD set is going to sell for around seventy dollars US. If just the people who signed this petition decided not to buy them, that is a loss in gross sales of over $4,200,000. I know that is probably what George Lucas spend on mineral water for the year, but that is a significant amount of money, and businesses like to make money. If only the people that signed this petition wrote a letter to George Lucas and an e-mail to fox video, maybe they do the math too.
Defeatist thinking leads to just that, defeat. Even if a boycott and letter writing campaign were unsuccessful, those of us who really do want to see the orignals on DVD are are only thirty-seven cents worse off than we were. But at least we will feel like we did something about it other than finding reasons not to do anything about it. What have you got to loose?
