I disagree about the celebration music. (I don't have strong feelings one way or the other about the one in Jabba's palace.) The old music felt too silly and light-hearted to me, even when I was 11. I'd even go as far as to call it "corny". I think the new music is much better and conveys a more somber mood: victory with a cost.
I agree with virtually everyone else on the planet about Han shooting first. That should never have been changed, and the humor of the "Sorry about the mess" line is lost in the revision. Most of the other changes in that episode, though, I was okay with. I had bigger problems with the little changes in Empire--mostly dialogue changes. What happened to "You're lucky you don't taste very good"? Actually, the same thing happened in Jedi, too: What happened to Han saying "Trust me" to Lando as he's about fire his pistol, seemingly blindly? That used to be funny!
