Yes.We're new DVC owners buying in at GCV.
Looking at buying an AP for DL but was shocked at the paltry $20 discount compared to a much bigger discount at DW.
Has this always been the case?
Apparently, DL doesn't feel they need to offer much of an admission discount to DVC Members. DL has far more passholders than WDW does and on any given day, there are more passholders inside of the CA parks than there are regular ticket holders. So, I don't think DL really wants anymore passholders.$20 is hardly an incentive.

I hope you aren't letting things like member perks play any role in your DVC purchase decisions. Perks come and perks go. Tomorrow (or next week, or next year) that WDW AP discount could disappear entirely.
Buy DVC as a vehicle for saving money on your lodging...not for perks or pixie dust.
I think they offered a $70 discount during the promo period last year.
