I don’t get your reasoning at all.

The writers are only asking for a tiny slice of the digital revenues pie. True, that pie may or not be there, that’s the risk everyone takes, but it’s not like the writers’ demand for a share of that pie–whose value they helped generate–will jeopardize the pie. The producers themselves are certainly not foregoing their much larger slice in the interest of the common good.
