Disney found theirselves a little over-exposed to economic conditions after sept 11, 2001. Specifically they were and still are (to an extent) having problems filling hotel rooms. Thats why there are fairly substanial discounts for Disney resorts. It doesnt make a lot of sense to open a couple thousand more rooms at a value resort when you can stay in a moderate resort for less than the non-discounted value price.
