Well I think that's splitting hairs, IMHO. We're not talking about two different products, we're talking about the same thing released in different home video formats. I'll buy it in the future when there's a better quality transfer, I've already bought the 2004 Lowry "restoration" (supervised personally by George Lucas). Lucas declared that it was the definitive version:

“The other versions will disappear. Even the 35m tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years,” he said.

“A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version, and you’ll be able to project it on a 20ft-by-40ft screen with perfect quality.

"I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s, to go back and reinvent a movie.”

And that was around 2004 or 2005 wasn't it (before the "GOUT")?
