Try telling Netflix that.

  How come Google can do it? Why cant Netflix?

    Cause Google has mostly equal traffic levels 24/7/365, while Netflix has huge spikes, which are impossible to efficiently sustain with bare metal hardware. Also, Google's revenue is more than 10 times that of Netflix, and they have highly custom software and hardware.
