[QUOTE="jgsugden, post: 8302341, member: 2629"] Amazon's payments will go to the production costs of future seasons, but the rights surrounding an animated series picked up by a streaming service are not as simplistic or uniform as you make them out to be.Often, compensation is tied to views.This is not correct, at all. They selected Amazon for exposure and compensation. They had other options. If things worked, generally, as you supposed, the people that own the IP of a series would have no incentive to make those series.This is incredibly incorrect. The notion that all they're getting out of this is minimal voice over payments is very wrong. The idea that if it is a hit they have no leverage to collect higher amounts of funds is wrong. If they were only going to collect a minimal voice over fee and lose all profit participation, they'd have been better off selling blu rays. Your position basically boils down to, "Hey they were given 11 Million in KS funds, and there is no way they can benefit at all from that gift." That KS gave the many millions to work with and they're reinvesting it to make it grow. The notion that this is intended to only give them a small amount of VO funds makes no sense in any way.
