If you still go to Disney with all the cuts, then that tells them it's ok to do it.
Disney used to offer all the entertainment and perks to draw people to the parks... the last few years the parks have been super crowded, so Disney doesn't have to do anything to draw people anymore. In fact, it's the opposite...they want fewer people, but those who spend more money. They have been raising prices like crazy, yet people still pack the parks. Disney has been in money grabbing mode... since they are getting packed on the crowds, they then turn to cutting costs to gather more profit. If you think Disney is in it for the 'magic' you are very mistaken, they are in it for the money...the 'magic' is a facade they put on to make people come. The facade does benefit visitors for some feel good moments, but first and foremost they are a money making company. If you have been going for a long time, you know the 'magic' has been on a decline for quite a while.
Also due the crowds, Disney is not a 'relaxing' vacation for most anymore... everyone is on schedule to get to the next ride or dining reservation... very few stop to listen to the entertainment. Know when I went last few times there was rarely more than 10-20 people watching any live music acts. Yeah, a lot heard them in passing, but not many stayed.
