I'm confused as to why Netflix would need to A/B test their thumbnails. If people are browsing thumbnails, I think they would already be paying subscribers. Is there a business reason for doing this?

Help customers find content they like and keep them around. If you run out of content, why wouldn't you cancel your subscription?

If you use their service more it is less likely that you will cancel it.
