    Is this more wanting endless residuals? I really find myself not sympathetic to people wanting endless paychecks for work they already got paid for.

      The companies are making record profits off of those same writers and artists.

      If you’re unsympathetic maybe stop watching and consuming media? Good luck to you

        Several companies are making record profits from my work, and they aren’t currently paying me anything for that.

      Wait, it’s ok that the companies get endless profits from media, but not the people that created it?
