I know that they won't be as good as, let's say, kubrik's collection but transferring movies to digital is a lot easier and cheaper to do than when those movies were transfered to DVD. I'm not expecting a lot but herzog's movies look like VHS quality on DVD. They deserve better not just for posterity but because they are wonderfully atmospheric and look great when I've seen them on 16 and 32mm.
Alright, this is turning into a diatribe - I'm going to shut up now.
