Amateur. I can compress entire seasons of a TV series to a few bytes. All I have to do is type its title in Netflix and then BAM, gigabytes of video come out.

    Sure, but Netflix has a lot of cache misses for my favorite shows. I found a random website that has compressed matches for thousands more shows and movies than Netflix
