much less per view. They tried this initially. Studios had stuff on Netflix remember? Back when netflix was worth subscribing to.

This was because netflix was just some free extra money on the side, kind of like selling a tv show to a foreign network. But then netflix ate into their actual money from network broadcast. So now they need to get serious and charge netflix a license fee for the show that reflects that.

They upped the license fees for the show and netflix just didn’t pick them up. All your favourite shows dropped from netflix and the studios had to build their own services.
