Just delete the movies you don’t want. After awhile, you will find suggestions based on what you actually watch. Look on your Netflix website and you will find a *remove* button under every offering. Down rate anything offensive and those sorts of choices will vanish from your screen.
I don’t understand a total boycott because a vendor offers choices you dislike. They are _choices_. Netflix is just a vendor. They offer a range of products trying to draw consumers with a variety of tastes. There are plenty of offerings that are not Marxist or any more agenda driven than any other entertainment venue, from books to films.
If only cable had offered ala carte programming, priced as low as Netflix and w/o commercials, we would not have left. We sub to GBTV for The Real News. I rarely watch Glenn’s TV show, but then, when I have an afternoon to kill, I will surf through a week’s worth of his show, watching what I want and ignoring the rest. So convenient and w/the watch later option, I don’t need a DVR.
Streaming services will utterly kill cable because it is choice-driven. I have discovered that re-runs of network TV shows that are now offered on cable were cut for commercials. Watching them on Netflix, the continuity now makes sense. The same is true of some movies. If we want to watch several episodes of something at one sitting, we are thrilled to not have to pay $40 for a set of DVDs.
You have good points. I had not studied the operation enough to understand the process you describe. I am just so sick of having stuff shoved at me. That was my only complaint with Netflix. I like non-commercials and the continuity of episodes. I’ll give it another look. Thanks.
