OData could be extended to allow expressions in the $select query option, allowing derived values to be returned along with the properties of an entity.

This could be expressed as:

http://odata.netflix.com/v2/Catalog/Titles?$select=Name,substring(ShortSynopsis,20) as Summary

or

http://odata.netflix.com/v2/Catalog/Titles?$select=Name&$extendedSelect=substring(ShortSynopsis,20) as Summary
