But I want to watch them in high quality, which those altered versions would provide.
What should I do?
Lucas is a ####### for making this so hard.

Somewhere out there is something called the "Despecialized Edition", where someone went through and did (as best they could) a shot-by-shot recreation of the original theatrical release using the highest quality sources available for each shot. Usually, this meant using the Blu-Ray as a starting point and then using different editing techniques to remove the content that has been added over the years.

I have no idea if it's any good, and I don't know where it can be found, but I'm sure it's out there if you look for it.
