I can appreciate how algorithms might be helpful with seeing what you like and helping you find other stuff similar for you to enjoy. I think the issue comes when you end up getting pigeon holed and only see certain things, despite maybe wanting to see something completely different. I noticed this when I saw what my Dad's Netflix looks like compared to mine. He had all sorts of movie suggestions I've never seen before due to his different watching patterns.

We're both in agreeance that they could do a better job with movie descriptions though.
