No, that doesn't mean dual releases, unfortunately (yet) or dvd-only releases (tapes are still going strong, according to Tricia, and they are still the backbone of the market).
But there's an interesting stock clearance of vids at the Private Shop, 14.95 $ each for a *selected* number of Private Films.
I ran to the page to buy Golden Triangle, but I found out that Gigolo is the only Woodman's title for sale
(it's mostly a Frank Thring stock clearance, I'd say).
Anyway, Golden Triangle 1 & 2 (probably Woodman's masterpiece) are nowhere to be found on the Shop, in any format.
That means that my mid-'90's dupes are all that's left of this fine piece of porn.

Thank you for the alert, SbandoBoy. I was able to complete my Film collection relatively inexpensively (fortunately I already had Golden Triangle 1 & 2). What is to become of the stuff Private does not intend to transfer to DVD? The Private Video Magazine, Triple X, and Private Stories? It's alarming to think that these things will become unavailable (except in edited form in the Lust Treasures series).

(David, is that you?)
Unfortunately, as I've said before, PrivateDVD has judged the vignette collections "too low quality", visually speaking, to deserve a digital edition. Even "The Tower" doesn't have a proper dvd edition.
And that's really a pity.
There are many compilations that include the Triple X and Video Mag clips and each time I show them to friends, they always freak out about the lousy video quality. Are they really that bad? Dvd's should also serve as archives for old material. Releasing dozens of compilations, cut and still not so sharp visually, is really better than offering a complete catalog?
The worst part is, like you said, that this treasure will become unavailable.
To many of us, Triple X and the Mag have always meant more than all the big-budget productions. They had a simple formula (like they Private mags had a clean layout) and it was a simple pleasure waiting for the next Woodman girl or for the new Private Report.

As Sbando said, there is many vignettes from the Private Video Magazine, Private Stories and Triple X Video series that have very poor technical quality for our actual standards. This would surely lead many of our customers to disappointment and complaint. I know that some of you follow us since many years and have your favourite scenes in some of the mentioned series, but we are commited to offer a minimum quality in DVD that we cannot deliver from many of the stuff from these old series.
We have decided to release the best scenes in the Lust Treasures series which will have at least 9 issues and 30 scenes from each of the series.
I know we cannot please every one of you but we try do it the best way.

Do you plan to release "Golden Triangle" at all, Roger?
