We've been at both times and honestly once things get to a certain point of fullness we can't tell a whole lot of difference. What I can say from experience is that the week in between the holidays is indeed super-busy...but its also a super fun time to at WDW...and in our opinion there is no better place on the planet to bring in the New Year than the happiest place on earth.
There's a great big beautiful tomorrow

YES! Its the busiest time of the year where the parks shut down due to capacity. The only other holiday I could compare it to is 4th of July

yea but look on bright side, MK is open til 11 all week (12am 30,31) and WS is open til 1am new years eve! but then again, that still does not make lines shorter, but gives you more of a chance to get more stuff in per day. I hate when everything besides WS closes at during winter months (besides the extra hours °o°)

Yes, that particular week is the busiest of the year typically...we were there that time last year and one other visit and you can expect popular rides to have 2 hour waits......

If you're staying on property, don't forget that MK has EMH every morning that week.

When we go at this time of year we get in early and get out when it really starts to get packed. We pick our nights for wishes, etc and work around those, but do not plan on doing attractions (unless we have a Fastpass from the morning) because the lines are jsut too long.

Expect BIG crowds & bring lots of patience! We experienced crowd gridlock at MK which was a Disney first for us. New Years Eve at EPCOT was unforgettable. This is a beautiful time to visit, even with the crowds. And the weather was fantastic! Don't let the crowds scare you off, be organized but flexible. Don't expect to try to see everything, the crowds will slow you down. Great people watching too.

SSE is one of my favorites, but I never see a line unless it is packed.

Question to all of you about park filling to capacity...My DH wants to be at Epcot for New Year's Eve. We are not so much caring about riding rides all day. We just want to be at Epcot during the evening. If we were to go into Epcot in the morning and then go back to our resort (Boardwalk) for the afternoon, would we not be able to get back in? Does Epcot typically fill to capacity for New Year's Eve? We really don't want to be in park from 9am-1am, but would do it if I had to in order to ring in the new year there.

Extremely busy. Unfortunately that's the only time we are able to go this year. Oh well though. It's still WDW!

Very busy BUT that doesnt mean you can't do it. We went this time last year and we managed. Just get into the parks early, and use the fastpasses. Disney is always busy!
