>netflix is designed to be on constantly in the background
That's exactly wrong. What the fuck? They specifically added "Are you still watching" screens, like YouTube, because they don't want people streaming shit endlessly, burning up all their bandwidth. Your ISP doesn't want you to do it either. Netflix makes the most money when you either watch 1) nothing at all, or 2) ONE show
There's also multiple other countries which, as their deals expire, will come into the fold. The French Raw Netflix broadcast doesn't exist, it airs on AB1 until January 2026. You can talk about India all ya want, doesn't really matter, they don't need to bump numbers 20% to have an impact. France, Germany, Japan, Italy, all will add an influx when their local deals expire. Netflix didn't pay $500M/year based on Day 1 numbers, they signed a (5+5)+10 year deal for a reason, so they could have flexibility throughout the duration.
