For me, the reason is not found the films in the streaming platforms.

And another problem (for people foreign languages, non-english) the original dubbing of the film is lost (for copyrights or the original dub audio film was in low quality (VHS or something)) and the film in the streaming platform is with a new dubbing (and normaly it does not give old high spirits).

Even streaming a film in the original language can be hard. If you want to stream the English version of a Hollywood movie, you often can't do it from your country. It might only be distributed in e.g. German or Italian.

Although off-topic because it is in the computer games, not films, the worst example of lost dubbing is the spanish voices of old edition Baldurs Gate 2. The new version of this game for GNU/Linux, Android has a new spanish dubbing and it is bloody worst.
