If five people can maintain a service bigger than all those combined, then the big streamers need to buck their fucking ideas up.

They had a big library, but not the user base. They were definitely not maintaining anywhere near the infrastructure and bandwidth of major streaming platforms. Netflix claims 260 million users. It's not hard to get a giant catalog when you dont have to pay for it.

Yeah Netflix has to pay for edge connections in major ISPs, and host cash is in places.
