1- This edition has only 2 Live-action reference clips while others have 3
2- At least some of this content is available under the "Behind The Scenes" section of the Sleeping Beauty Scrapbook feature
3- This section is labeled "Posters" on this release and when combined with the stills found in the "Publicity" section of the Sleeping Beauty Scrapbook feature, it contains most, if not all, of the content found under this feature on other releases
4- The Special Edition DVD "Disneyland Walkthrough" Still Gallery and the "Disneyland Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough Attraction" feature offer the same basic content but the latter is more interactive and a much slicker experience.
5- This is an abbreviated version, lacking the wraparounds and setup and preview of Sleeping Beauty by Walt at the end.
6- There are 2 full length versions on this release
7- This edition has a text and Audio introduction not found on any other release
8- Accessible via the Disney Song Selection feature
9- A newly animated Karaoke (no movie footage) Sing-Along feature.

NOTES:
The 2-Disc Platinum Edition Bluray is the first, and still the best, release in regards to special features. Of course it doesn't have the features that would later appear on the Diamond Edition and Signature Collection it makes up for that in the quantity and quality of the features it does have.

NOTES:
The Signature Collection offers a few exclusives and carries over the Diamond Edition features (some of which were previously exclusives) either on-disc or digitally and offers an exclusive digital feature as well. There are still many features missing but this combination (if you consider the digital features) is an excellent CORE choice.

Walmart Exclusive DVD
NOTES:
The original Special Edition DVD release has some exclusives including a few Still Galleries, Games, and featurettes so for a complete set you will need that release. The Walmart Exclusive Bonus DVD is strictly optional as the feature on the disc does not pertain to the actual film and is more of a marketing ploy than anything else.
