I've wanted this for video streaming too. After getting rid of cable, I'll often want to put something on in the background while I'm browsing the web or playing switch or something. I feel like almost everyone has a completely different thing they are looking for in active vs passive consumption and being able to tailor it would be very nice. Very straightforward example: I really don't need subtitled shows when I will be half paying attention at best. I also don't want to watch something that is new to me and also "good" when I won't really be paying attention.
