    This has a funny secondary effect in that in some countries they would definitely need to get a broadcasting license then, when so far they got around it, being a video-on-demand service falling under the same laws as rental places for VHS tapes and such.

      Getting a broadcasting license isn’t all that difficult if you are just an entertainment channel. Big German twitch streamers had that problem and while its not cheap, a license costs pretty much nothing compared to all the licensing costs Netflix has.
