I don't know what that does, but it would be nice if it shows different recommendations for different people. My netflix is filled with kids shows. But I am not sure because I just put it on netflix for kids when Abby (my 3 year old) watches because it is easier for her. And this is generally the only time I am on netflix on my computer. Usually I just watch on my roku

It's giving us the option of ading profiles. My guess is that you can switch from one to another. I hope it works out for you.

PEACE!

it gives him and his wife the option to have separate lists and recommendations. They like it, as their tastes are often very different.

My dvd queue is still a list. But my streaming list shows all the covers. I don't see how I can change it back to a list.

Once you do that, you should get a box in the upper right-hand corner that says "Change order to: MANUAL."

Click on that and your list will appear as a list.

I wish I could convince the kids to use their profile. My son is 17 and my daughter is 20. They have very different tastes from me. My wife is on a completely different world, too. It would be nice to get recommendations just for me (and I would think they would like getting recommendations just for them and not the artsy foreign "crap" I watch--and zombies).
