Found this thread and just started reading up on Disney's many mishaps over the years... It's most unfortunate to say the least. I look forward to whatever OTV uploads come; I love Beauty and the Beast so that will be cool to see the true theatrical and 1:66 aspect ratio. Count me in as voting for either file-sharing site or open tracker.

I was thinking of buying some Vaulted stuff before prices go up way high. After looking around the web, I still have a few questions that I thought I'd ask those more knowledgeable here. So, just to confirm, the most accurate versions are...

Snow White- none (all have brightness issues and are no way reflective of 1937 Technicolor color palette)
Pinnochio- old DVD for better color timing
Fantasia- LD (DVDs have narration replaced, though LD is still censored)
Cinderella- LD (isn't missing details that Lowry restoration is)
Sleeping Beauty- 2003 DVD for a better color palette (at expense of cropped picture)
Little Mermaid- Doctor M's Custom Disc (is this going to be uploaded any time soon?)
Beauty and the Beast- LD Rip (correct aspect ratio, color and OTV)
Aladdin- ADM's reconstruction (is this still available?)
Lion King- laserdisc for palette and OTV

Anyway, hope someone can confirm this is so. I never realized the dire state Disney films are in; I assumed the releases were all theatrically accurate... Ah well: more to preserve, I suppose.
