I feel like a better policy would be for disney to ban cameras/vlogging/streaming for the first two weeks and just livestream it themselves and release the footage for vlogger use

A current out-of-state AP is $1650 with taxes. A 10 day (most you can currently purchase at once) park hopper (to be comparable in benefits) is $918 with taxes.
They won't do that. Save them money if other people do it.

so living in Florida and being blocked christmas week saves $700? Wow
Depends when you go.
AP is $1,550
6 days in October and then another trip of 6 days in December (which is when I go), the tickets with hoppers cost: $1,710.
Those 12 days are more than the AP.
Now, August and September, those two day-ticket trips cost $1,370. Cheaper than the AP.
Since I usually go 3 times a year, AP wins hands-down.

Yeah usually two longer vacations a year breaks even give or take.
It's buying the hopper for each trip that makes multiple purchases of day-tickets much more expensive.
It would be great if WDW said, "Hey, last time you were with us in this past year, you bought a hopper additions. So, we're going to had a hopper to this set of tickets for free!"
I can dream...
Be careful, someone may call you a filthy, fish-eating, freeloading piece of AP scum who is taking up space that the millions of tourists begging to be let in but can't get in because AP scum like yourself are taking up all the spots.

Would be nice. I've got an 8 day hopper this summer. And potentially 1 or 2 trips in the year after (but only 1-2 days each) and it's barely breaking even. If I don't take one of those trips I'm out money.

No matter how you slice it, you must have a park reservation for MK for that day. How you handle that day as an AP is up to you. The point is you can come back for the evening to see the parade. I could be wrong but my reading is that if you have a park reservation at any other park, "temporarily", you cannot park hop back to MK after 2pm during the initial run of the parade.
I also take the AP discounts into the equation. Especially the discounted resort rooms.
DPB didn't bother with PTN May 16th......DPB did do MSEP's 50th....

Then why specify any "changes" at all if nothing changed. APs already have to hold a park reservation to any park, unless a Good to Go Day. No, you must hold an MK park reservation for that day to see the parade, unless a Good to Go Day presumably.
"If you’re a Passholder planning to catch the Starlight parade, make sure you secure your Magic Kingdom reservation early. "

I don't care what they think of me. I'm just concerned with how I manage three dozen peanut butter sandwiches on the plane.
Hey! I was right about 1/2 predictions so far!

I promise you it was not. I have spoken to many people to confirm what I saw, and in case you’re doubting that I was in the parade, there’s plenty of footage. We had an hour to chill backstage. I know what i saw.Bull

DFB claims Disney told them this doesn’t impact hopping. Any park reservation at any park suffices.

I was wondering the other day, why does MK always have trouble with the smaller floats & the trolley tracks? The smaller floats in BTY & the original FoF always tried to avoid the trolley tracks cause they would get stuck but at DL they drive all over the tracks with no problem. Is their design planning really that bad that they can't remind themselves to get thicker wheels like PTN uses?
