Except that is not the case, and your statement is nothing more than worthless hyperbole.

It's hard to believe you have ever used YouTube, Netflix or Google Play TV in a small country. For current TV shows, your options are usually to watch them as they air, or not watch them at all.

This even includes stuff for which Netflix is the original distributor, like House of Cards, because they may have licensed the content exclusively to a broadcast TV station.

You are absolutely wrong. It happens to Australians all the time.
