The German DVDs have the same restorations as the Image discs, so should replicate the relevant details on their soundtracks and sequencing notes.

First off, there are some errors in the current BD listing:
Timings for the individual shorts are incorrect.

You could expand the notes by saying the latest BFI DVDs (the PAL equivalent of their BD set; ASIN B01N94GASF) are the best of the lot, while the most recent Spanish Divisa DVDs (ASIN B00R5XOBL4) are third best overall. The BFIs have the best audio sync, transfers and contain everything in the FA set and more. With the BDs being available I think it pretty unlikely that anyone here is going to add the UK and Spanish DVD sets, so it's certainly worth mentioning them.
Ta muchly for adding my article link but, as with the Essanay BD comparison, you've retained the erroneous tag! The links should be: http://www.brentonfilm.com/articles/cha ... ide-part-2
