It is yourphone. As such, it has drm capable hardware, which let's you stream Netflix.

Think of the alternative: you don't have protection. Who would license their media to Netflix?

Who wouldn't license their media to Netflix in a world without DRM? What are they going to do? Make a $100 million dollar movie and then only release it in theaters, just out of spite? That'd be leaving a lot of money on the table.
