The Writers Strike Highlights The TV Industry's Streaming Problem - Variety.
MrsBlue and I were recently discussing the implications of the strike on a
sector that was already in the midst of an upheaval. We've been so spoiled for a
while by the quality of content from what was once considered a vast wasteland.
Hopefully, the industry can right itself without heading into the dark ages. But
if not, there's probably a lifetime of good content from the last 20 years that
we haven't even heard of yet, much less watched.

Follow-up
Given the numbers that were askedm the studios are go to lose more money nearly immediately then this fight is even worth. The actors guild joining doesn't really do much except accelerate the amount of money being lost. I don't see how the studios don't have to cave.
