If this series was available commercially then I'd be inclined to agree. As
it is, though, the chances of this TV series ever seeing an 'official'
release is pretty slim - even then, I wouldn't expect it to even be
considered until at least 2007 when Brian Singer's remake gets its
theatrical release (can't wait to see this btw!). Until then, I see this as
no different from concert bootlegs...
