I can think of a few examples...one of the strongest songs on Tegan and Sara's Sainthood (and one of my all time favorites of theirs) was "Light Up" an iTunes store bonus track.

One of my favorite Hold Steady songs, Ask Her For Some Adderall, was a bonus track on Stay Positive and another one of my favorites, For Boston, was a bonus track on the Australian release of Boys and Girls In America.

The extended edition of High Violet has a studio version of "Wake Up Your Saints" which was one of my favorite songs by The National, even though I only had a live version until that came out. Also, the iTunes bonus track version of Alligator included the song Santa Clara (originally from their Cherry Tree EP) which is up there with some of their best songs.
