Well, at least they're picking it up a little, but it didn't really help me, since I only had the first year, and based my decision to renew off what I got that year.
Also, you guys are MUCH bigger classic Disney fans than most of us, I think. I respect the legends and history and such, but I won't go out of my way to hear about them or anything....it's just not my hobby or interest. And as far as travel goes, I'd rather go to Tokyo and go to TDS, my favorite park.
It's just an opinion, but while D23 is probably worth it for fans like you guys, it's a money sink for some of us, and, in the grand Disney tradition, I think Disney knows they can milk a lot of money out of people who love Disney that much. Everything I've seen related to D23 is marked up...even by Disney standards.
