Ask HN: Why is it good if media companies lower streaming quality?

How is this helpful if the quality of a stream is regulated by the speed of the internet in the spot where the client is? In my understanding, if the local network is busy it will ultimately result in lower speeds, therefore, a "degraded" stream quality.
