and they seem to struggle with it.

they never struggled. The just cannot adhere to the "eternal growth" which is different than "struggle". They were making millions. The "problem" was that they wanted each quarter to make more millions that the previous quarter. CEOs believe that there is an infinite amount of potential subscribers or even if they manage to make everyone on earth subscribe then they will eternally increase their prices every quarter. Or I don't know, maybe their system has some flaws
