I think you’re kind of conflating what I believe is the ideal versus what I perceive to be reality. We are one of billions of people. The fundamental nature of existence is that our sum ability to affect the world around is generally quite small in comparison to the sum of the consequences of others as a whole. More people use Netflix, ergo Netflix has more leverage in negotiations with Apple. I don’t think that’s a particularly controversial conclusion?

The controversy is that this is an artificial phenomenon brought upon by Apple's blatant disregard of inalienable digital rights by refusing to allow a user to do as they please with their mobile personal computing platform. There should be no leverage, and the fact that Netflix uses this privilege without taking a stand for others left behind is also controversial.
