A they have a different approach, Deleted Magic was more about exhaustive research of one category of SW knowledge the scenes which were eliminated.  SWB is a general look into some of the knowledge which went into the production of the film.  It's one persons take on what is/was important.  Quality and deleted scene material don't go hand in hand.  "If Quality is all that you love, then that's what you'll receive."  but you'll missed out on a lot of  substance as they doesn't exist in current ""quality"" mode.

Bingowings worte: Selling his own project was bad enough but selling other people's work too was beneath common piracy.

OCP was just ahead of his time.  He looked at the world as if copyright legislation was at it's US infancy (14 years) and created a new work using old (what should be public domain) just as GL reused ideas, myths and motifs.  OCP & JD's work is generally the future of academic research as with all material available instead of writing about what happened you can conjoin the bits of the actual recorded happenings.  {but this type of future is in jeopardy as laws get rewritten}  Jambe has done the same thing, just using a larger pool of material.  But with that comes the subjectivity of the selections, as his time length is the same, can't focus everywhere in 2.5 hrs.  So yes watch both as you'll learn different things from each.
