If the studio is getting a fee per view from Netflix, would they care if they don't get one from Crave? I'm assuming the fee the studio get from Netflix and Crave to be roughly the same but I have no way of knowing.
Some said that Netflix is just huffing and puffing because if they do come down hard on VPN, they'll lose a lot of subscribers from countries like China and South Africa.
For now Netflix could be just posturing to placate the contend owners.
