I deliberately avoid any title that isn't a 2-Disc set unless it's a new release (Treasure Planet, Home on the Range). I don't want to take the risk of buying something that I'll end up double dipping on later. Therefore, my animated classics collection is mostly made up of 2-disc SE's. The only single discs I have are Fun and Fancy Free, Peter Pan: Special Edition, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Lilo & Stitch (which will hopefully be upgraded soon), Treasure Planet, and Home on the Range.

Except when the movie isn't out or announced for a 2-Disc, we end up buying it (i.e: Robin Hood). I hate double dipping.

The Jungle Book
The Little Mermaid
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Hercules

Lilo & Stitch
...Because they are all going to get 2-Disc rereleases, and most probably sooner than later.
You could also maybe add the two Fantasias to that list. For a long time, I didn't have them just because I haven't been able to get my hands on them, but now I might avoid them and wait to see if/how they get Platinum-ized.

Beauty and the Beast, Snow White - Missed them...
Hercules, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Lilo and Stitch - Likely to get 2 disc sets.
Oliver and Co, Aristocats, Robin Hood, Fox and the Hound - Likely to get new transfers and extras if a sequel is to be made for them.
Jungle Book, Peter Pan, 101 Dalmatians, Cinderella, Lady and the Tramp, Little Mermaid, Pinocchio, Fantasia (+2000) - Plaitnum Editions are in the works.
Package features + Home on the Range - Last on my priority list, and they're expensive as any other classic so I don't bother with them.
The Black Couldron, The Great Mouse Detective - Will be blind buys so I'm hesitant about buying these for now. No store has 'em for rent either!
Treasure Planet, Rescuers/Down Under, Winnie the Pooh - Plan on getting this soon.

The only ones that I deliberately don't own at the moment are the ones that I'm not a massive fan of that and may become a 2 discer in the near future (Hercules, The Hunchback of Notre Dame) or the ones that either I cannot stand (Treasure Planet
). In the unlikely event that I own all the other animated classics, however, I would be willing to pick up the ones that I don't like.

My Brother's family has all the Disney classics on VHS, so I don't have any of them!
However, I do want to get Alice in Wonder, Robin Hood, and both Fantasias for myself. I've seen AIN and Fantasia 2005 at used DVD stores downtown, so I might pick them up the next time I have the cash.
The only thing I'm really disapointed in not having is the Silly Symphonies Disney Treasures set. I didn't buy it because I didn't realise that some of my favorite B&W shorts were actually Disney.

Saludos Animgos--Not much of a anything at all, just bores me
Alice in Wonderland--One of my least favorites, one that I can just live without
Robin Hood--Poor, recycyled animation a la Hanna-Barbera
The Black Cauldron--Nearly unwatchable attempt to create a serious film aimed at young adults
Oliver and Company--Don't like the whole premise.
Also, anything after The Lion King I do not like enough to buy myself a copy on DVD.

The Emperor's New Groove: I need to find one with a reasonable price rather than the SRP
Treasure Planet: I need to find one with a reasonable price rather than the SRP. My cousin has a copy.
Luckily I started collecting when Snow White was released so I already have whatever wasn't listed though I'd double dip for:
The Adventures Of Ichabod & Mr. Toad
Peter Pan
Lady & The Tramp
Sleeping Beauty
The Sword In The Stone
The Hunchback Of Notre Dame
Atlantis: The Lost Empire: I wish I got the 2-disc Collectors Edition rather than the 1-disc
Lilo & Stitch: Heavens to Betsy, when is the 2-disc coming????

I really think that most of the excuses listed by each title are pretty lame. Either you are a Disney collector or you are just a Disney liker. You need to get off the fence.
Brownie needs to define cartoon and animation a little better. All animation is a sort of cartoon, cartoons are really animation. You need to explain what you mean a little better.
And those of you who say you don't get it because you think that it is edited, or you are waiting for a two-disc set are just not true Disney collectors at all. To the best of my knowledge, having been a projectionist for over 30 years, I can tell you that "Melody Time" is not edited for DVD. Yes, it was edited for VHS, but the DVD version is the complete theatrical version. Make Mine Music is actually an extended version on DVD and there are no edits. There are additions, yes, but no edits.
Not all Disney movies will be given the two-disc treatment. And if you missed it the first time around, it may not come around for some time. And what do you mean waiting for a better version. You want them to remake all of these classics?? I don't think so.
And Robin Hood is as far from Hanna-Barbera animation as you can get. That seems to be a not very well thought statement.
I will not buy any direct-to-DVD movies of Disney. If they aren't good enough for the theater, then they aren't good enough for my collection. Why do they insist on making sequels? Why do they not put them in theaters before coming to DVD? G-rated animation is already hard to find nowadays in the theater.......most of the animated films that are coming out are PG-13. C'mon Disney, give us the sequels in the theater first.
