The TR47 and the Anamorphic sets have the exact same extras disc.

The TR47 set is 4:3 widescreen and contains the original uncompressed PCM audio tracks. The Anamorphic set has a compressed/ converted audio track (AC-3 I believe) to make room for the commentary track, menu screens, THX opening, and an easter egg. Both excellent sets with different strengths.
