The problemn witha 45 day window is that it punishes the people like me who DO plan ahead, and WILL go to every ADR they make at 180 days. Being a DVC member, I book my rooms 11 months out (a nd start planning at least a year in advance), at minimum 7 months if I want to stay at a resort I don't own at. It may sound crazy, but the 180 day ADRs are the LAST thing I book. Making me wait until 45 days before I travel would annoy the heck out of me. By that time I've even booked my tours etc., which would have to change if I had to change parks for that day, based on ADR availability.

Another, DVCer here. I book my rooms in the 11 month window and my "must do" ressies 180 days out. Park hours are released at 6 months, so we have a good idea where we'll be each day. I hated the 90 day reservation window. It was stressful and much more difficult to book dining for 7-8 people.
