Note that while this does not apply to Disneyland, the discounted DLR tickets do come with Lightning Lane Multi Pass which includes your PhotoPass photos.
Also I did not discuss the value of this perk because it's highly dependent on your situation. If you are buying day tickets then this does hold decent monetary value (assuming you would have bought it anyway). However, if you already have the Memory Maker add-on to your annual pass, then this is pretty much useless.
