 had to use the original film masters, which isn't too difficult.  But othe

If they had actually done anything with the audio, at least a few of the pe

ion has taken over a lot of Pioneer/Geneon product, and ALL of Tenchi, so I
 guess if they decide to go Blu-Ray, they'd probably take up the project.  
However, they would have to do it from the film, because the tape masters d
on't have anywhere near enough definition.  It would seriously look like cr
ap if they just upconverted.=0AI'm guessing to take on the project, a major
 re-negotiation of contract would be necessary.  They couldn't just run wit
h a standard contract for an old anime.=0A=0A=0A
