I think the primary inhibitor for releasing anything from the vaults is just 100% laziness... which makes no sense because projects like that don't require any heavy lifting nor hard work.
Most of it wouldn't even require much from the band... Just a matter of getting a decent engineer to weed through the tapes, clean them up and assemble enough to fill a CD or DVD. Then send it off to someone to master and digitally clean it further. A few hours of review and deciding play orders and what's in or out is all the band would need to do...
Outside of laziness... I think Ed would just rather bury everything in the past for fear of having to see or hear his fucked up self or be reminded who he's mistreated while blasted out of mind on drugs/alcohol... That's got to scare the livin shit out of him!!
