I noticed that the digital version contains some DJ edits
and the 45 version of Pour Some Sugar On Me. They appear
on Disc 2.

Just a heads up: I purchased the album out of curiosity yesterday morning via Amazon Prime and received it this afternoon. Sadly, while it's a good solid release featuring the album cuts, radio edits, a few remixes and live sets, the Def Leppard "Hysteria (30th Anniversary Edition album)" is mastered ridiculously LOUD. In fact, some songs are mastered so loud they sound near distorted—Guess someone at Mercury/Virgin EMI didn't get the memo the loudness wars was over a decade ago!

This doesn't actually surprise me. The Deluxe 2-CD of Hysteria from 2006 is also mastered to the point of distortion. Terrible sound on that one, too.
