But I've seen the actual Laserdiscs of the trilogy... pre-SE and all. And they were UH-MAIZ-EEN. The DVDs I've downloaded, while quite nice, are just not as pretty. The entire point of me wanting to do the double-layer thing was to have as high a quality and as low a compression ratio as possible, thus giving the best picture possible. I don't really care about commentaries, I can listen to the ones on the Dr. Gonzo versions if I want commentaries. (Plus, I'd listen to the commentaries like, what... once? Maybe? The picture quality is FAR more important.)

So yes, LD ain't gonna get better than LD... but it can get a whole lot worse. And the idea of splicing with the official DVD releases just sounds... sketchy, at best.

Regardless... any ETA on the upcoming Double-Layer Editions? (There we go... a way to differentiate these upcoming editions from the rest: The DLE Set.)
