Honest question (I don't know much about audio coding), but from what I've read here on HN, Netflix offer some of the best remuneration packages - so don't they have some of the best developers working there?
Surely they'd have picked this up if it were that straight forward?

Having worked in several top-tier for employee-compensation firms, I can wholeheartedly assure you that best pay does not result in best developers (or any other job function).
It does generally result in a higher “floor” of employee, but that’s about it.
