Back when Home Videotape was introduced, it was so expensive to manufacture the tapes that studios argued they could only pay residuals on 20% of the price they charged wholesalers for. Then it got cheaper to make the tapes. Then it got even cheaper, to make DVDs and Blurays. Then it got essentially free, to distribute on your own streaming service. All the while, residuals are still only paid as a proportion of that 20%.
