Classic Mister Rogers from the 60's and 70's now available for download and DVD

Thinking about this has triggered a memory that I forgotten about: Were there VHS releases of the series in the 1980s/early-1990s? Because I feel like I've seen video copies of the show somewhere when I was a really young child.

Yup, and here are some of them:

I'm thinking if SW does take a cue from this and does something similar with SST - it would obviously be more expensive than most fans could afford to get a lot of episodes but i have an idea.

If SST comes up with a make-on-demand dvd option, fans could organize a club or email tree where each person orders an episode and the various people within this tree (all ordering different episodes) can do trades with everyone else. All hypothetical since it's just speculation now if SST will even ever have such an option but throwing that idea out...

There is no question that SW needs to take a cue from Mr. Rogers here. Sure, there's probably some annoying copyright bugaboos somewhere, and that needs to be settled if that's the case. But think about it. It could not only open up Sesame Street MOD's, but also could pave the way for The Electric Company and Square One releases (and sub-releases of Square one that could put all the week's Mathnet segments together).
