While agreed that this is sad news, part of me is not stunned. No matter how we view it, this is piracy and for the most part it’s illegal. I praise all the hardworking TN1 and Harmy have done with their respective reconstructions but they as well as everyone, including myself, having been walking a tight rope legal wise for a few years now, all for the purpose of preserving that which is no longer available. I in no way will call Harmy or TN1 or those who have followed their works ‘thieves’ per se as long as it was all done within context. Harmy stressed that those who view the DeSpecialed Editions should already own the official BDs and so is not trying to take ownership of someone else’s property. Sure it doesn’t make what he’s done all the less illegal but I won’t call him a theif for it. People trying to claim ownership over what doesn’t belong to them I will call thieves. IMO that is not the purpose of this site or what those involved have done. That being said its a shame about TN1 since 3 years of restoring something historical has been shut down but again they like everyone else who delve in piracy were in troubled waters.
