Ethics aside - downloaded footage = less control over the quality of the footage...

Actually i think the majority of people here believe editing/publishing to be morally right, i THINK so, anyway. So that's why they encourage buying DVDs, so that nothing morally criminal is associated with us.
If an editor pays for everything he uses and gives full credit to all the creative owners then i think it's hard for the average person to call us criminal, except by greedy copyright owners.
So if we give credit, then the act of editing and publishing our videos alone is not piracy.

Go ahead with your ethics, i applaud you.

As if having US remastered DVDs could guarantee that ;___;

Well when talking about the "raws" you find floating around that are already filtered... perhaps you would rather filter them differently... or the "raws" that are essentially people recording their TV broadcasts (gotta love those timestamps and logos!) - having the DVD/Bluray and using them does give you more control about the end result of your video.
