Do you mean the LD is hard to find or the Limited Issue DVD?

My local library system claims to have a copy of the DVD (they used to have a great selection of LD too), but that doesn't necessarily mean anything.  I plan on trying to get it for a look though.

Considering those era Disney films were meant to work both 4x3 and matted to widescreen, the newer 1.75:1 release is probably just as reasonable (not matted on the left and right)  and better if you have a 16x9 TV.

Also, the old DVD and LD have really washed out colors.

I have some downloadable comparison shots on the other thread.  Still, if I had my druthers, the optimal would be fully open matte 4x3 with colors more like the Platinum Edition.  But that's not being offered. :-(

Btw, if you guys are looking to bittorrent these things, you should take a look at this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demonoid#d2
