It has to do with measurement and precision, similar to finite, it refers to distinct limits.
But enough about that.
I will not be buying the New Original Trilogy Star Wars DVDs, acronym: NOT SW DVD.
I was thinking about it but the 'Hayden's ghost' thing combined with the 'Kiwi Boba Fett' broke the camel's back on this issue.
I am now sorted thanks to Rikter and am no longer angry at Lucas just disappointed as I really did want to own an official Star Wars DVD set but he wil not have my money until he releases the unmolested OT.
The amazing thing is he could have had twice my money and everyone else's here doubtless if he had released a deluxe boxed set containing new transfers of the OT AND his horrible NOTs in the same package like the Alien Qualdrilogy.
I wouldn't have hesitated to own such a comprehensive Boxed Set and it would have joined the other volumous tomes in my DVD library. Obviously the changes are too great to seamlessly branch across and so would have required a disc per version of the film plus assorted extras discs.
They could also have put out a DVD boxed set of just the NOT and made the O-OT exclusive to the deluxe set.
This multiple release option was used for the E.T. DVDs you could choose old and new or just new. I chose neither as I've never been a really big fan of E.T.
This would have been the option to make the most cash for Fox and LFL. If they released two separate boxes one of the OT and one of the NOT then of course most of us old fans are going to purchase just the OT and leave the NOTs to the Jimbos of the world. However if they gave consumers the choice between NOT or both NOT & O-OT there would be less of an uproar and more money flying their way.
Consumers like choice and don't like being shafted.
I would really like to have seen the documentaries on the upcoming DVDs but I'll just pass on them if they only come with the new horribly disfigured version of Star Wars. If I could somehow get this extras disc on its own then I would. (Anyone?)
