    Unfortunately, DVD and, to a certain extent, Blu-ray/UHD customers are now experiencing what us laserdisc collectors had to deal with with certain pressing plants. I seriously doubt any metal-based platter sandwiched between two plastic glued "protectors" has the longevity that was ever claimed (I think it was suppose to be around 100 years). Even proper storage can't stop a disc that's prone to laser rot and can only delay its eventual demise. It's sad, but I doubt we'll ever see a physical format that isn't CD/DVD in execution since streaming services have devoured the market. Yeah, there are a bunch of boutique companies fighting the good fight, but many of their catalogs are laughably small and will eventually fall to the streaming juggernaut. Your best bet is to rip them, preferably to an ISO container to preserve all aspects of any given disc.

    In the words of the good book...., No, not that one, the other one. "Don't Panic!" This might not be DVD Rot. It could be PVC leaching. Several years ago I had similar issues with, funnily enough, Fox releases of "Fight Club" and "The Abyss". These were the original 2 disc releases, pressed in Australia. Within a year of so of purchase, they began glitching. Cleaning (a quick spray of isopropyl alcohol) resurfacing discs failed to fix the issue. Then, one day a region one disc from Warner Bros' " Fringe" glitches. I saw that the disc surface looked foggy. So I opened the set to check the other discs. That's when I noticed a viscus gooey substance on the empty disc tray. DVD cases and their inserts are made of pvc, which under certain environmental conditions can change its' state and migrate onto the disc. Staining its' surface. Two microfibre cloths (wash/dry), a smallish drop of dishwashing liquid (spread across the playing surface and left on a minute) and firm radial (inner ring, to outer edge) strokes around the disc under a warm tap/fawcet. Dry, check and possibly repeat the process. Until You end up with a restored disc. Repeated the process with the "Fight Club" and "The Abyss" disc. Voila! Both now play perfectly. I hope this is the case with Your discs. It's worth a try.

That is why 4k77 is quite something you can watch the original roll up and starfield and you have 2 of the three theatrical audio options presented. Stereo and Mono, the 70mm is a recreation so i don't count it. If one wants to get even more technical the silver screen edition has the original credits and not the later issued credits from later in 77, 78.

ANYWAY, the entire point of my original comment was to make it clear to @CameronKiesser that the reason people still want these DVDs is beicase they include content that is NOT present on the Blu-rays. I am also well aware of what Despecialized Edition, Silver Screen Edition and 4K77 are. I never claimed that these DVDs were better or “more original” than any of those.
