| Where it stops | Suggestions come from association data rather than your history, so without an account it never gets more personal than 'people who liked X'. | It is an interview archive rather than a recommendation engine, heavily weighted to non-fiction, and it cannot tell you what you have already read. | Pages are heavy with ads and IMDbPro upsells, and user ratings are open to organised review-bombing. | It lists the service, not what you pay after bundles and regional packages, and smaller local platforms are patchily covered. |
