Is there a Comparison Site that attempts to declare a DVD/BR definitive edition?

Let me clarify. I was wondering if anyone has come across a website out there that is similar to Rewind/DVDcompare that compares the best DVD edition of a movie to its best Blu-Ray counterpart.

I'm not talking about PQ - most of the time (with the odd exception) we can reasonably expect the BR edition to be superior. I'm interested in the Special Features. I'm guessing even now sometimes a DVD edition is still better than the Blu-Ray in terms of either quantity or quality of special features.

The Blu-Ray Review forum threads on this site are pretty good at stating whether the disc includes all Features from previous DVD releases (especially on the intro posts before you click on the main review) but doesn't do a comparison as such.

Anyone seen anything approaching this on the ole interweb?

Sorry, just did further forum search and saw that very similar questions have been asked before. General consensus is comparing features yourself over different retail or review websites and using the following:

rewind/dvdcompare
dvdbeaver
highdefdigest

Any others cropped up since the previous threads?
