Well, the first DVDs were 1996 (most clips and Music Videos). The first DVDs released in the US came out in 1997 when Lumivision released Africa the Serengeti, Antarctica, Tropical Rainforest, and Animation Greats. Warner came in a week later with its first 30 DVD titles including Blade Runner and Casablanca.

It is certain that the first television episodes came out sometime between 1997 and 2000, but I can't find an absolutely clear date.

Some people report that the first complete television series set was the complete first season of Fox's X-Files on September 5, 2000. However, there are many, many reports of other series being purchased prior to that... several reported in 1999 (Such as Monty Python's Flying Circus), and there may have been anime episodes or series released in Japan even earlier.

If anyone finds a good source with better dates, leave the information in the discussion below, or write to support@answers.com and we'll update the question.
