One major ideological difference between Netflix' 'Tiger King' and the Audible exclusives is that the 'Tiger King' wouldn't exist without Netflix' funding. The Audible exclusives would have; were already written by the time Audible threw money at them.
Yes it would exist because netflix acted merley as the distributer for Eric Goode's docu series which he started filming in 2014. So not so much difference after all.
Time to cite sources, because neither of those sound like they're true? Tiger King would have been made by HBO, or Amazon Video, or etc. (Tiger King was not commissioned by Netflix, it was pitched to Netflix).
Similarly, I'm pretty sure Audible commissions plenty of works rather than only reaching exclusivity agreements about already published works.
My impression is that Audible does explicitly fund some exclusives. This is especially the case for "Audible Originals" which are a sort of gray area between Audible Exclusives and podcasts.
