Yeah, but nobody buys more redundant stuff than Star Wars fans so you or another SW fan will likely win this. Most hardcore movie people only want or need like two different versions of something max.

Very solid point... though, most of my purchases were order-of-magnitude technical upgrades as it was released on each new format (the only real exceptions being the VCDs [the first fully digital format it was released on] and the Faces LDs [which were recent and just for display]).

Exactly. VCD was basically the worst format ever and you already had the VHS but you bought it. The LDs were decades old and useless by the time you bought them. Most fans of The Godfather or Akira Kurosawa would never buy such things. That is, useless discs that will never be watched. That’s not really a movie fan thing it’s a collector thing. If you give most people a well done 1080p Blu-ray of their favorite movie they’ll likely be happy with it forever, freeing them up to buy the next movie. An official and well done 1080p BR of SW does not exist so you guys will buy everything else forever. It’s like getting the action figures. You want them ALL, even Lobot. Nobody who’s favorite movie is The Godfather wants a Lobot.
I feel kind of personally attacked here.
