A Winamp playlist of older Disney songs.

Pretty similar here.  Apparently not all Disney stations have backup audio,
or at least nobody on call to fire it up.  WQEW-1560 in NYC was dead air
until the satellite audio came back about 12:52am EST.

Other ABC programming was also affected.  Timeless Favorites on WNBH-1340
and WLKW-1450 was also down for a while.  Didn't check other feeds like
ESPN.
