cross my fingers and hope for the best...
the best for rental home owners is that: eisner is oustered...and take over did not go thru...

history proofs that being taken over by a distribution company will not work out...take a look at AOL/Timewarner...Timwarner on cable company...and Sony on columbia in 1989...hugh write off will happen...and normal business, especially the content side of the business, will get affected in near term...

I am a bit worried about all this recent news about the possibility of Disney being taken over by some obscure TV company. As a visiting 'customer', I wonder what it will mean to the image of Orlando ingeneral and WDW in particular. Will the parks retain the same magic and remain as 'user friendly' as they are now with their emphasis on old fashioned family values? Or will Mickey et al be forced to dance to some new sponsor's tune every year? Whether one likes it or not, people are too used to Disney being Disney and any new image (if that is what's intended) may not work the same magic.
