The content you are talking about wasn't on Netflix all the time. They were constantly churning the catalog and still do. There are shows from some of those places right now. Netflix has always had a limited catalog based on how much they wanted to spend on licensing. For example, they have CBS shows like NCIS and NBS shows like Seinfeld right now. If Netflix had all the shows all the time it would likely cost as much as all the streaming services combined to support the licensing costs.
