Movie studios are always finding excuses to rescan and remaster. We won't be dealing with those 04 scans for much longer.
Like I said earlier, there are now much newer transfers of Willow and the Indy films than there are of Star Wars. Lowry's 2004 clean-up of the OT and 2003 clean-up of the Indy trilogy were impressive at the time, at least in terms of the clarity it brought out in those films, but LFL/Paramount/Spielberg still realized it wasn't good enough for Indy and I bet Disney realizes it's not good enough for Star Wars.
The Spike tv broadcasts have run their course, and maybe Disney is deciding whether they should start showing the movies on one of their tv channels or put them up on itunes or netflix.
As of now, there will be a 4k blu-ray format available by this time next year.
