Finally received my copies. Disney Club uses the slowest shipping service known to man!
First the bad news. Like the the first wave, Old Yeller and Pollyanna are single-layer and have lossy sound, Dolby Digital 2.0 mono (320 kbps). So the 5.1 remixes from the DVDs are gone along with all the extra features. I would be more upset about this if it weren't for the fact that the movies were originally mono to begin with, so they are just returning to the original soundtracks. Still it would have been nice to have the remixes.
Picture quality looks great. Both movies have been cleaned up and restored to like-new condition, though the color on Pollyanna is just a bit on the weak side. As is Disney's practice these days, both aspect ratios have been opened up to 1.66:1 from the original 1.75:1.
