Yes! At one point there was a way to get all movies by score paginated in a simple HTML table without even pictures. Just nice, dense, sortable and filterable information.
The only better interface for me personally was when I used their API via Ruby and was able to sort exactly how I wanted.
- rchaud 8y agoThat might have been helpful for you, the user, but it was likely a problem for Netflix the corporation. I remember people scraping those tables and creating websites like "Check which shows are available in your regional netflix". Because every international Netflix variant had a much poorer selection of English-language titles compared to Netflix US, it must have hurt international adoption. Unsurprisingly, Netflix changed their site layout so that such tables were no longer "exposed" to the end user.
