Netflix gets paid to promote content? That doesn't make sense. They buy or license content, and their incentive is to get you to like what they have to offer in order for you to keep paying them a subscription fee. Why would they pay someone for content, only to have them then pay them to promote the content?

Spotify does this too (paid recommendations).
