In this case they are the product, and there are a lot of customers. Plenty of people working on the things that make those players valuable, building and staffing stadiums, and filming and broadcasting events worldwide, that don't get a share. Because they aren't the product.

They wouldn't have those jobs if the players or the league did not exist. That's their share. They make a lively hood off the product's operations.

I agree. Check the comment I'm replying to for more.

sure but the product is puppets and the devs are arguably the puppeteers.
What do you mean?
