What seems particularly evil to me is the effect it has on resumes of the actors, artists, musicians, etc. -- they now have nothing concrete to point to for an entire block of their careers, if they can't point to a finished product.

And the point about destroying series just to deny workers their union residuals... wow.

Well, if I had any urges to watch recent movies or TV, I sure don't now. F these money-grubbing vampires. Most of the writing is now so formulaic and tepid anyhow...
