See my above post about six or so higher about all the hotel benefits you could have had at Universal. The annual pass discount there get’s you all that for less than 2 rooms at a WDW value resort.
The express passes are free with the Universal Resorts.
Universal also has these things WDW has forgotten about which are called “New Rides and Attractions”, which are pretty cool.

Universal Resorts aren’t that enticing except for fast pass and early hour?
My family of 5 can stay in a 4-5 star resort, Portofino, in a 900 SQ FT SUITE, with 2 FULL BATHS, thanks to Loews First program, which is free. We ride a boat through a beautiful mile long canal to the front of the parks. Every check in we receive a free gift in our room like a fruit basket, or choc covered strawberries, or giant cookies and a pitcher of milk, etc. We tld them recently we were celebrating our oldest son’s graduation and they sent a large basket of goodies which would have been easily $75 at WDW. We also receive $100 meal credit at every check in for the hotels restaurants!
At WDW we USED to get 2 bare minimum rooms at a value resort with no perks and stand up on a stinky bus on the way to a park.
Now the new Cabana Bay Resort will have a lazy river, wave pool, 50’s bowling, etc. and the family suites are nicely furnished and have seperate bathrooms and sinks so several family members can get ready at the same time. These look to be less $’s than the no frills value resorts at WDW.
We find all this very enticing to us in Universal’s favor.

@Cassy Trust me, Disney covers their parking costs — they just hide it in the room price. So, in that sense, even people who aren’t driving have to pay for parking when staying on-site at Disney.

Isn’t Universal the park that charges their onsite guests for parking? That is more of a ripoff than anything Disney has done.

@Jack Tamagni – I have dealt with Disney and theme parks in general since all the Disney fansites appeared on the internet. And the one thing I found over and over and over is that Disney is like a cult with many people and they truly are brainwashed. That said, in the last five years or so, it’s been the first time I have EVER seen many Disney fans comment poorly on the Disney product. And many of those have finally allowed themselves to sample Universal and discovered that they were actually wrong about their product. This is MONUMENTAL. Just look at the poster above who was kicked off a thread for DARING to say something negative about WDW. 
Yes, Disney may hold the crown for the near future, but if they continue to make similar decisions to the ones they’ve been making for the previous decade, we could actually see Universal take over. Just look at what happened in in the late 90s in Anaheim. They had stopped spending money in Disneyland and attendance dropped. Then they built California Adventure in 2001, and Disneyland plummeted. Yeah, a small part of this drop in attendance was due to 9/11, but it didn’t reach the high reached in 1996 until 2009! And then they “fixed” DCA. But look at their attendance levels. They’re up at DCA, but actually DOWN at Disneyland. So even when Disney does things right, there does seem to be a ceiling. How high is Universal’s ceiling? And how long until WDW suffers the fate the neglected Disneyland suffered for 13 years?

Quite simply. The whole thing, was a BIG WASTE of money (save for rolling out WiFi park / resort wide and a upgrade to the back-end system that makes hotel reservations… that’s were it should have stopped.)
No need for bands, readers all over the place, new turn styles, new fast pass locations, etc..etc..

Marc N Kleinhenz Right. I guess I should have clarified my question. I was speaking more to the cancelation of Star Wars land in Orlando. It seems like there some clear issues with the MyMagic+, but the only source Niles has of this “cancelation” is the same Mice Age article. Hey at least it’s only a rumor and it might be untrue. It seems unlikely that they would halt/ cancel all planning of an expansion that could potentially bring in a ton of money and completely rejuvenate HS.

Well, for whatever it’s worth, it seems like Robert Niles over at Theme Park Insider backs the report up — or, at the least, he isn’t refuting it, which he certainly would do if he were hearing otherwise:
