Song of the South was released on VHS and Laserdisc in other countries, usually only in PAL format (European standard).
It has never *legally* been released on Home Video (VHS, Laserdisc, or DVD) in "Region 1" (US, Canada, Mexico) in any form.
There are several bootleg versions going around, some appearing very professionally produced, most taken from a conversion of a Laserdisc master from a foreign copy (the most common being a Dutch Laserdisc). To the Japanese, the movie is out of copyright, so they freely distribute it all the time, but only on a master they generated from a print.
