Disney Animators - How Visual Style has changed over the years

Disney animations - the fairytales in particular - have always had similar styles over the years. I always guessed that this was because they wanted their films/brand to be distinguished as "Disney", which isn't a bad thing. 
There's a group on Facebook called 'Disney Animators' who post all sorts of things about Disney; random facts, meetings that they might have; and they've started answering questions from the public. 
This talks about how in the early days there wasn't much change in the style due to the lack of technology - everything was hand-drawn, so the animation looks similar to their initial ideas. However now they're exploring new ways to make films, so in the next few years they are going to use more of a variety of styles in their work.
