In 2004, the Sony Classical Records company purchased the sales rights of the original trilogy's musical scores—primarily because it already had the sales rights of the music from the trilogy of prequels: The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith.
Godine 2004. kompanija Sony Classical Records otkupila je prava na glazbu iz originalne trilogije prvenstveno zbog toga što je već potpisala ugovor za autorska prava na glazbu iz prequel trilogije: Fantomska prijetnja, Klonovi napadaju i Osveta Sitha.
