This is the first Aerosmith album to be available in a DualDisc format, having one side of the disc being the CD side with the standard edition of the album, and a DVD side which featuring the album in enhanced stereo, behind the scenes footage, and 4 live tracks in video format. Multiple editions of this album contain bonus tracks, most notably the Japanese and Target Exclusive editions. Strangely, the bonus tracks are not included on the CD side of the Target dual disc release, only on the DVD side. While the non-DualDisc Target edition contains the bonus tracks in CD format.

The Japanese release was presented on two separate discs a CD and a DVD, as opposed to a DualDisc.
