Netflix's bigger problem is that much of its content looks good on the surface, but on closer inspection is not worth the time.

What’s not “worth the time” to one person doesn’t matter. Netflix has enough aggregate data to know what type of content keeps people on versus how much it costs to acquire the content.

The only content that would be “junk” to Netflix is content that doesn’t engage enough viewers to keep down churn.

One problem may be inability to fully articulate genre enjoyment segmentation relative to classification , so that aggregate moves result in a worse results overall.
