Most of the internet uses AWS. Facebook uses AWS. Apple uses AWS. Should they not be a FAANGs then? What are you even getting at? Let’s not act like Netflix has no engineers and that it’s actually all completely Amazon’s engineering work. Like if you’re seriously insinuating Netflix doesn’t have any technical achievements idk what to say

The main point the original comment made was that their “groundbreaking achievement” was their storage and streaming… which isn’t really their achievement.

Netflix’s technical achievement of DRM is Microsoft’s god awful silverlight bs.

Their achievement was being first and showing what streaming could have been. Now that all the big companies have divided off into their own direction, Netflix had to rely on their own content. And Netflix’s original content has become hollow, hype-bait, and frustrating.

Why not list even a single one of these incredible achievements?
