You're reading it wrong, Kevin.
Xander: I do have Spaghetti-os. Set 'em on top of the dryer and you're a fluff cycle away from lukewarm goodness. Riley: I, uh, had dryer-food for lunch.

The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death
[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. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
I'm glad Kevin is wrong on this, Kristen. Will you summarize the actual deal?

What is even happening?
For streaming media in general, it looks if an episode is streamed during the first 17 days after initial broadcast, there's no residual. After that, ad-supported streaming is payable at 2% of distributor’s gross receipts. Then the document gets into different rate structures depending on the type of material, its purpose, and how it's made available.

I think I'm probably going to wait until after tonight's meeting before I make any specific comments. The provisions for the third year of our contract are different than what I had thought they were going to be so I want to be clear on that before I say anything.
I will say there's some good stuff here. It's not a perfect deal but it's much better than I thought it would be.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Well thank goodness for that. Better is always good.

If you haven't caught it yet, Melanie Lynskey guest starred on last night's Psych. And got to use her real (I'm assuming) accent.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I'm not sure where I got the 3% thing from.
The first 17 days thing is a bit of a pisser - that's when a majority of online streaming happens, I'd guess.

I think the truly important issue for tonight's meeting is...
What should I wear?
