'Life of the Party'
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
Whenever I watch CSI:NY online, I see it straight through without commercials. Which seems pretty odd to me. I usually watch it first thing Thursday morning, so maybe they introduce the commercials later on?
CSI Old School does--at the beginning of each segment, so it's about 4. I used to like their interface, but it's bugging the hell out of me lately.

PC, I don't think it is a flat 4 cents, I think it is a percentage. So, they would get the same percentage of the download as the DVD, but the cost for the download is less.
Aw, I know the girl who delivered the fruit to the SPN folk!
Oh, and their Facebook group appears to answer my question: 4 cents per disc. And that gets distributed to the writers of the episodes on that disc? So, basically, a penny for each writer? HOT DAMN. And where does all the other money go? How does the writer rate compare to the actor/director/anyone else rate? I assume most of the money goes to overhead and then corporate profit.

It's .3%. I think the 4 cents comes from the average DVD price ($20) times the .3%. (Except this equals 6 cents, so maybe I'm wrong.)

That's the average movie DVD price. But TV-on-DVD usually sells for three times that, MSRP.
Maybe the price is based on what the stores/distributors pay wholesale rather than the retail price?

We propose to double the home video residual formula from 0.3% to 0.6% for the first $1 million in reportable gross and from 0.36% to 0.72% over $1 million.
I don't know if this is wholesale or retail.
