From my limited experience with Super Studio Session 2.0 I have found the
following:

It has 8 independent voices instead of 6!  However this seems to take more
of the CPU time which makes it very sensitive to mouse movements on a MAC+/SE.
Moving the mouse causes the song to mess up (It makes scratchy sounds).

It uses a single program to edit and play music instead of seperate programs.

It doesn't seem to have a printing option!!!  No mention of this disappearing
feature in the documentation.

It is missing the tape player but has the "dancing notes" animation in the
new JukeBox mode.  This mode allows you to have it play several songs in a row
without user intervention.  However, it doesn't allow you to control the
volume or speed of the song which was always fun with the tape player.  The
speed of the song can be changed in the editor though.

I don't know how the music editing compares.

You can play Studio Session (6 voice) songs in Super SS, but since Super SS
has 8 voices I wouldn't think that it would be backward compatible, although
I didn't try.  With Super SS you get 8 voice versions of some of the songs that came with SS.

I didn't compare the programs side by side so I've probably missed some
points.  Overall Super Studio Session is better but isn't a superset of
Studio Session's features.  The biggest missing feature is the printing option.
