In the closing days of August 2026, a 27-minute window into a fictional city called Vice City became, briefly, the most-watched thing on one of the world's largest streaming platforms — not a film, not a series, but a promotional artifact for a video game. Rockstar Games and Netflix held the arrangement for just six hours before the footage moved freely onto YouTube, yet that narrow exclusivity was enough to place the content at the top of Netflix's charts in 87 of 93 countries. The moment asks a quiet but serious question about what 'content' means now, and who gets to define it.
