I think the choices we have available to us now are not only fantastic, but important as well. Different people want different things from any release of a popular property. This is especially true of Star Wars fans, as we are a notoriously hard group of people to please.

Personally, out of all the Holiday Special releases I have downloaded, Tasjo's was my particular favorite. My only interest in a further release was based on the notion that I'd really like to listen to the Rifftrax while watching it. In the same light, Gormaanda V2 was mainly about improving the Rifftrax mix and bringing the audio levels of the three original projects in line with each other for a more cohesive hybrid presentation.

All that said, I'm sure we haven't seen the last release of the Star Wars Holiday Special. With fans like Tasjo constantly on the lookout for better sources of the various station recordings, as well as the possibility of an official release from powers on high, I doubt there will ever be anything that truly qualifies as a definitive release of this television miracle.
