I feel that somebody needs to jump to Hardcore Legend's defense here and, although I agree with all your view points (i.e, the OT should be officially released and not denied) I think that HL is correct in regards to Lucas' obligations etc, and though you might not be happy about it, don't label what he says as bullshit because it's not. And as for the legality of our unofficial OT DVDs, if we own the originals on video of Laserdisc, and we bought them legally and Lucas got royalties for them, why shouldn't we own backups? It's the same with emulated video games - if you own the original cratridge or disc, you are allowed to downloaded a 'backup'. I have legally paid for the OT Star Wars trilogy 3 times on VHS and I have also legally paid for the '97 SEs and the 2004 DVDs, so anyone who tells me my OT DVDs are illegal can kiss my ass.


Is Lucas Legally obligated to release the OOT on DVD? no. Morally,ethically obligated? yes. As for the legality of the unofficial OOT DVDs? I thing I will leave that for lawyers to answer.
