Well, I don't agree that it's something no one saw coming. Netflix has its own giant legion of lawyers it pays to review patents and manage Netflix's liabilities in that regard. Patents are all publicly disclosed, so I don't agree with your use of "no precedent" or the notion that it was a surprise to Netflix.
