Scanning in super-8 footage isn't all that expensive

Therefore, Pearl Jam should give the filmmakers the cash to get the Vote for Change super-8 film (or a concert-only cut if the interview bits feels moot) scanned in 2-4K (don't need any discussion on what different film formats maxes out at) and released in 2K or even 4K. 

Even that DVD-release from back when, was on a burned out DVD-5 I seem to remember. Not even a dual layered DVD. And if there is one thing that mpeg-2 compression is not nice to - it's grain.

It was shot on film. And it had Pearl Jam and Neil sharing the stage. Why have it stuck looking totally destroyed?

    Doubt it's about money or difficulty. This band has shown to be limited in their nostalgia.

    As far as releases go yeah but that warehouse jammed full of stuff from yesteryear kinda says otherwise.
