but maybe it's not the corporations that are greedy not paying people what they are worth, but the people that think that they are worth so much that are greedy...

Nope. The writers are pissed because they get 0 payback on net sales. So as NBC and other networks increase thier use of shows being presented on the net, the writers get no royalties. The networks get a lot more profits. Personally, I think that whatever the baseline is for regular sales of the product, i.e. televised or dvd's etc, they should just get the same %'s. Granted, I may be being a little nieve on this, but, I don't think it is that hard.

 oh... WELL SCREW THE NETWORKS.  I'm all behind these guys now
