HBO definitely started it in the late 90's with Oz, Sopranos, and Sex/City.



USA started it with Silk Stalkings.

HBO already had Dream ON, First and Ten, Tales from the Crypt, the Hitchhiker.

someone probably already made this point, but dvds made a huge impact on television. People being able to rent and catch up on shows rather than having to tune in every week (onDemand has also helped this impact). If it weren't for DVDs (or onDemand) I would have never seen an entire series.

now that you mention it HBO has always been money.
