Default WTF! US X-Men Trilogy missing features and HD content available on the UK Blu-ray?

The UK X-Men trilogy set is apparently missing:
  • BD-Live functionality.
  • Digital copies of each film.
The US X-Men trilogy set is apparently missing:
  • BonusView (picture-in-picture mode): featuring interview footage and behind-the-scenes clips not replicated elsewhere on the discs.
  • In-Feature Photo Gallery: The ability to watch the films with accompanying still images.
  • A number of extra features encoded in HD (i.e. the UK set has more of the extra features encoded in 1080i/1080p compared to the US set).
  • Higher quality encodes for some or all of the films (i.e the UK set appears to have encoded some or all of the films in a higher bitrate!!)
The US set is region A locked while the UK set is region free apparently.

I'm shocked! This must me a first for Fox, leaving out features on a US release that are included on the UK version!

Can any Americans with the US set please confirm that the Picture-in-Picture mode and In-Feature Photo Gallery are definitely NOT on the US version?

Also are there any other differences that I'm not aware of?

One last thing! Some of the other European versions (Dutch? French?) of the trilogy reportedly don't have DTS HD MA English audio, only DTS HD HR! Fox are so bloody weird!

**Update!! The UK trilogy does appear to have D-Box motion codes according to the info on the back of the box for the UK version!!**
