Unions want a piece of the iPod pie

Oh, Hollywood, why must you resist the inevitable march of technology?

Unions for writers, directors, and actors are getting their panties in a bunch over the downloadable videos available on the iTunes Music Store. ABC says that the creative folks will be compensated as if these downloads were DVD's, while the unions want a more favorable agreement which will pay them more money per episode.

Come on, Hollywood, don't screw this up for all of us.
