What's the difference between these two collections and which is the better buy once I (one of these days) have enough pocket change to afford one? :-)

    It depends on what you already have and what your interests/needs are. Personally, if I didn't have the Word commentaries, I'd go with the smaller bundle. Word commentaries go for $700, so you're getting all the others for $200. I have a lot of the Bible study material that both of these offer and I don't really use it that much, but others find it useful.

    Nathan I agree with Gary,  I'd go with the Bible Reference Bundle rather than the 501 unlock.  If had the money to spend on the bigger collection, I think you'd get a better range of resources by buying the smaller collection together with one of the Zondervan Bundles.  That I think would be the better way to go if you want to build your electronic library, and I think the Zondervan resources are probably more recently published.

    Thanks for the replies! I'll sure keep it in mind. I don't have all the WBC yet, so I agree it's a great deal. I can't afford either yet anyway, so it'll be a while before I'd spring for it, but was curious as to the difference. :-)

    FYI: the first bundle seems to be regularly available 3rd party under a different name for $4-500.
