My main question is about the bus rides. Are the busses from POP quicker? Is it worth the added cost to move from ASM to POP? Also, how do the cafeteria's compare?

Pop is far superior then movies IMO. The food court at pop has much more selection. Unless something has changed the all stars share buses so yes pop is much faster and convenient. We found it very annoying having to stop at the other 2 resorts when we stayed at movies and it all meant the buses fill up way faster making you sometimes having to wait for a 2nd or 3rd bus before you can even board. You can also add the pop rooms have now been renovated where movies has not. You can see by my signature pop is our Disney home
I hadn’t thought about resort size. I knew POP had dedicated busses and was wondering if it made them quicker over all. But resort size would play a role. ThanksMost of the time each All Star has it's own bus. I find that to be a huge plus and each All Star is also much smaller than Pop, so you have less people fighting for seats on the bus.

Thanks for the insight! I think we will plan on AS MusicAnother vote for ASM, although I have multiple stays in each of the values--love them all!
With the All Stars having 1,000 fewer rooms there are fewer people to add to the chaos and noise. At Pop, it is far from a deal breaker but I dislike going thru the gift shop to enter the food court (through the main entrance).
You may have noticed that the Pop room rates have SOARED with the addition of the air tram thing...That makes it a "no go" for me. For my May trip, Pop was only $16 less than a moderate.....
This is what I always post as well Transportation is one of the last things we look at when deciding on a resort. ASMO and then POP are our favorite value resorts. With everything even, we would pick ASMO over POP, BUT since POP has queen beds now, we would pick POP until ASMO gets queen beds. I would look at resort photos and You can check the FC menus online to see the choices each offer.The buses are the buses and are the same at every single resort at every single level, some good some bad. The times I've stayed at All Stars, they have not shared a bus. I've stayed at Pop and Sports. The renovated rooms are nicer at Pop but that is the only difference I've noticed. The food courts are the food courts, certain times of the day noisy and crowded. I always just stay at which ever one is less.

Agree, the issue we have with the murphy is that it takes away the table, that we use a lot of the time As for feel, there should be no difference between the 2 beds.Keep in mind that one of the queen beds at Pop is a fold out. That makes a difference to some people.
