Amazon Exlusive Woodstock Ultimate Collectors Edition

[quirkmanly]

I think there may be some confusion over what makes this an Amazon exclusive and how many disc are included.

The movie's entry on this site's database states that it a three disc set with an "Amazon Exclusive Bonus Disc", however Amazon's listing for the item states that it is a "limited and numbered Amazon Exclusive 2-Disc Blu-ray Ultimate Collector’s Edition" with "Amazon Exclusive Bonus Content".

A few folks (myself included initially) on the forum seem to be a little confused as to where their third disc is, but it does seem like a three disc set doesn't exist.

There are only two discs - this is from Amazon's description (also note the ENTIRE film is on disc 1). The older information that was released when the disc was scheduled to come out in the spring had it at 3 discs with the film split onto 2 discs. I believe having the film on one disc is SO much better. ALL the bonus material from Amazon is on the 2nd disc.

Blu-ray UCE feature list:
Amazon-exclusive bonus content (included on disc 2) with never-before-seen performance footage in hi-def from Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, and Country Joe and the Fish plus three bonus featurettes
40th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition includes:
-Lucite display with images from the festival
-60-page commemorative LIFE Magazine reprint
-Iron-on Woodstock patch
-Woodstock fact sheet
-Reproductions of festival memorabilia, including handwritten notes and a three-day ticket
New retrospective: The Museum at Bethel Woods: The Story of the Sixties and Woodstock
Woodstock: Untold Stories: Over two hours of never-before-seen musical performances by Joan Baez, Paul Butterfield, Canned Heat, Joe Cocker, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Mountain, Santana, Sha Na Na, the Who, and Johnny Winter (Exclusive to Blu-ray: customize your own Woodstock playlist)
Woodstock: From Festival to Feature: comprehensive featurette gallery chronicling the festival and the filming from start to finish, interwoven with interviews from Martin Scorsese, Grace Slick, director Michael Wadleigh, Woodstock Festival executive producer Michael Lang, and more
Enhanced BD-Live bonus features

Turns out, there isn't a three-disc edition to be had -- the exclusive content Amazon offers is included alongside the standard bonus features on disc two of the 2-disc set. The Amazon listing initially labeled this release as a 3-disc exclusive set, but they've since updated the details.

Up to the minute information can be found in this thread:
