They saw Netflix was making a lot more money from their content and wanted s piecd of that pie. Now they’re slowly realizing it takes quite a while to get there.

Yeah but Netflix paid them for that content so it their fault they didn't ask for a "fair price" or something. Also I guess they wanted to fuck over the artists by fudging with streaming numbers and pay them nothing.

Netflix doesn't pay per stream.
