I like to be polite in public, but what you described is the unpolite version of what I think of Netflix lately.

In other words: primevideo is cheaper and has a much better catalog. My ISP also offer the same things I can find on Netflix for free with the subscription.

I'm just using the usual quote about these matters, which posits that the quality distribution is such that the overwhelming majority of the items are below average ("long tail distribution").

Meanwhile your claim is very different from mine : you posit a very different distribution, where the overwhelming majority of items is around average ! ("the rest is just mediocre" => assuming there are still a few very bad ones that you don't mention, this would correspond to something like a gaussian distribution.)
