Not sure where you are getting most of this info from. Not saying you're wrong, as I'm far from an expert in this area. But its not something that's easily Googled either. Since it "airs" on streaming services, no real ratings are available. And no one's really privy to whatever the exact deal is between Netflix and CBS for the sale of foreign rights. From what I can tell, CBS reached a deal with Netflix sometime ago and many seem to think the deal last for years (so it all may have been agreed upon years ago). It appears whatever budget there is is largely paid for through the Netflix deal, leaving little risk for CBS. It also seems to suggest that airing Star Trek Discovery on CBS All Access (in the US) drove that platform to all time record subscriptions. Now if Netflix suddenly wanted to pay less for it, that'll surely affect the bottom line. But if Netflix did this, I'm not aware of it (again, it seems the companies signed a multi-year deal by all reports)
