once Lucas decides he hasn't made any money from the DVDs for a while. Then
he can release the BD versions and sell them all over again

No one seems to know as yet. The first SW BD was only released a short
while ago, with The Clone Wars (2008) film. Hopefully that is the
start of Star Wars being firmly in the high-def camp. I'd love to
think that Christmas 2009 would see a blu-ray box set or two.
I only recently got my hands on the LD Definitive Collection (1993)
box set of the original trilogy and am loving it. My other SW films
are still on VHS hand-me-downs from family. I've seen the newer DVDs
on loan from the public library, but I will only upgrade from
laserdisc when Lucasfilm finally gives me a high definition option. I
have no problems with Lucas' fancy alterations to the movies, and look
forward to seeing them sparkle on blu-ray. But I think I'll always be
glad to own the (mostly) unaltered versions I have on LD. Although
they are in 2-channel stereo, I think they still sound great on my 5.1
surround system. I played SW (1977) last night and my subwoofer was
getting a decent rumbling workout. Great fun!
