And just to satisfy all the ethics hawks on here, I believe the kickstarter funds went to the production costs. No profit. Just a free download for all fans paid for by a small generous group of fans. So nobody should feel guilty about owning it.

After all 4 seasons were digitally remastered by fans these things actually sold out? I wonder how many of these will just be framed and hung on a wall?
