    I get that they should be paid more for a days work considering their fees, but I’m not really a fan of residuals. I don’t get residuals from my work.

    I think I read somewhere that the Friends actors get like $20,000,000 in residuals. Not sure how accurate that is, but they did that work once like 30 years ago. Why are they still getting paid for that?

    Maybe this stuff should lose its copyright much sooner then it will belong to the public.
