Basically, my primary interest is OD&D and BD&D--once I have good scans
of OD&D and BD&D, I'm happy to release what I have. While it was
expensive to buy, ship, and scan everything, as long as someone else
"chips in" and does the same, I'm game.
So, the top of my list:
BECMI @ 600 DPI
Moldvay/Cook @ 600 DPI
Complete OD&D @ 600 DPI
The modules we can collect and build over time, and some online dealer
will likely deal in acceptable scans. However, for the above, 600 DPI
is my dream.
