So.... I'm not smart enough to remember the exact details about all of this...
There was the writers strike that happened around 2008 and because streaming wasn't that big of a thing, the corporations managed to keep streaming stuff separate from non streaming stuff. (Its one of the things that the current writers strike is about.) So what happened is that when AMC gave Netflix the green light to stream Breaking Bad, there was no requirement in anybody's contract to ensure that they got paid from the deal.
