Re: Netflix Prize

I don't use Netflix, but I've heard noise on the tech podcasts lately 
about them possibly getting rid of profiles (at least temporarily until 
they replace them with something better). As a part of that discussion, 
it implied that the current feature set includes the idea of individual 
user profiles such that individual family members can set their own 
preferences and create their own queues. 

I take it profile identifies aren't included in the data they provide?
