Just how crowded is Disney World during spring break weeks?

We have vacationed at WDW many times since our first time when our twins were about 5. Our whole family enjoys visiting there. I have found that staying on site and buying the multiple park passes works best. We usually buy one or two days less than we are staying and do one day that is a waterpark/downtown disney day. We find that being able to hop from park to park is very useful. If one park is extremely busy or does not offer enough to fill the day you can head to another. We try to go to the Magic Kingdom in the evenings. Fireworks and Parades and most of the smaller children have crashed. The best trip ever was a week ending Labor Day weekend when Hurricane Frances came to town. The park was open on Friday but with no flights coming in it was 0-10 minutes for everything! They closed the park for the next two days but we were in a Deluxe resort that year so it was ok to be confined. Would not have wanted to be at a value resort!

The kids were at the Harry Potter part of Universal on Jan 2 as part of a Band trip. It was quite crowded.
