I've heard from some Disney engineers that the overall system is flexible enough that even the video on the spinning globe could be customized for a special program or event if it was needed.

I feel the same way as you and I think the name recognition is the least Disney could do. Doesn't bother me in the least. Recognizing a company by name is a lot different than hawking their products openly. --- And no, to anyone who thinks I'm moaning about fries in the MK.
