Netflix has exactly ZERO competency when it comes to live streaming. They are NOT a technology company. If you want the biggest cockup in the world give it to Netflix. No way would they be able to handle the demands/requirements for live streaming. It's a very different set of system and design requirements than on-demand streaming.

While google doesn't have the streaming expertise either they have tons of technical competency which is not something you can say about Netflix. They also have tons of infrastructure to handle the bandwidth loads. Remember netflix builds it's streaming system on Amazon(with associated CDN etc in appropriate environment).
