I am not running a custom ROM in my smartphone, it is a fairly popular device (Xiaomi Mi A2) and I still can't get high quality streams on Netflix because my device only has Widevine L3.
Meanwhile I can get high quality streams in an anime streaming service called Crunchyroll in all my devices (including every browser in any OS I want), most because they don't care about DRM.
: It is interesting that for default they still require Flash for viewing video browsers (they have a HTML5 video player in beta, though). To think that HTML5 reduced our freedom compared to Flash is ironic, to say at least.
