> "We don’t know what you like, but your friends do" isn't really true for me.
A lot of things are behaving like this for me. When Netflix was first released here only myself and a few close friends had it, and we all have similar tastes. Now everybody seems to (go Netflix!), and so my recommendations really aren't relavent to me at all... It also didn't help that I set it up on the PS3 and my housemates watch nothing but Top Gear on it.
I wasn't aware that Netflix used social data to influence your recommendations; I was under the impression that they were based only on your own use and ratings.
