There is more than Netflix and Verizon involved. You are overlooking Sony's role in the interconnected networks (or internet).
I am grossly simplifying but when you try to view Netflix via Sony player, your request goes to your local ISP (e.g. Verizon) which will send it to Sony "server" which in turn will send to Netflix. If any of the bandwidth of any of the connections between these servers are insufficient, you'll experience issues.
Let's say Sony didn't purchase enough capacity in your area, then you'll have issues. Even if Sony did purchase enough capacity but dedicates most of the bandwidth to gaming and not enough for online streaming like Netflix, you'll have issues.
Or you may simply just have a lemon.
