French Guiana 4,5k vids France 1,9k vids

the funny thing is that formally Guyane is an overseas department of France

Probably because so much content has a specific deal for France but never did a deal for somewhere like Guiana.

So I guess to get the best content you are better off in a bad market for top international TV and movies.

This line of thinking seems to make logical sense, but I can see a counterexample. The Aland Islands (Finnish region) have ~280 videos, whereas Finland has ~2000 videos.

Would love to know what the reason behind this is.

Nice. Depressing as well if you look at the catalogue sizes.
