New York - The New York Times on Monday reported on Disney's plans to offer portable media players in McDonald's Happy Meals, as detailed in a recent patent application. Customers could then download segments of movies, cartoons or games over Wi-Fi within the restaurants to the media players. "The reward for eating at a restaurant, for example, could be the automatic downloading of a segment of a movie or the like, or a short animated clip or cartoon," according to the patent application. Since 2003, McDonald's has installed Wi-Fi Internet access points in 6,200 of its restaurants worldwide.
