    Love how they make this sound like some incredible feat. When you aren’t bound to license agreements, turns out it’s actually very easy to have a “massive” content library. Literally the only hurdle is storage space.

      I mean, distributing it isn’t a small feat. Plus you need to manage subscriptions, billings, CMS, a front end to navigate the content, etc.

      That’s no small amount of work, even if they used out of the box solutions for many layers.

      They didn’t need the army of lawyers to get license deals, so that’s not a fair comparison.
