I don't find Netflix recommendations to be that useful. They recommend categories for sure.. but I like a wide range of movies and it is usually on a per movie basis.
- atomical 7y agoI don't find NetFlix compelling because after I watch great movie X the service cannot recommend me another movie that is of the same caliber. Also, there are a lot of independent movies and TV shows on NetFlix. And they suck. Horrible acting and plot but the cover is sometimes good enough to trick you into wasting time taking a look.
- visarga 7y ago> after I watch great movie X the service cannot recommend me another movie that is of the same caliber Statistically, after viewing a great movie the next one will be rated as less satisfying. We build up our expectations to a level that is not in sync with reality. This psychological insight was used at one of the early Netflix challenges by one of the top contestants.
- DrScump 7y agoNo matter how specific I enter a query, Netflix will respond with a scattershot collection of its own titles, quickly descending into utter irrelevance to my search terms. They never, ever admit that they don't have what I'm seeking and then suggest alternatives. I get it free from Tmobile but hardly use it.
