Can you ask them for the file? That bypasses several problems, all in one shot.
Of course, you'll have the original quality, and not what a streaming service did to it, and it might even be better than what they sent to the streaming service.
And, you should ask them what they'll allow you to do with that file, and get that in writing if possible. This is the not-so-fun legal side of media creation and production. Anything at all that you use, that was done by someone else, is copyright infringement by default. If you have permission for *exactly* what you're *actually* doing with it, then you're good.
(and you only have to convince a Content ID bot to not take it down automatically just because it's similar, which is NOT how the law is supposed to work, but more or less *is* how it has to work when there is so much new content pouring in that it can't possibly be reviewed by humans)
