Well I think ...

... the penetration of the VCR was the start of the era of "on demand entertainment" with video stores and recording TV shows.

By the 1980's the price of VCR's had fallen enough that nearly anyone who wanted one could have one, and the stereo was relegated to the background.

The number of entertainment options really proliferated starting then, where now, there won't be any one dominant media, for very long anyway.

I suppose streaming media is the likely end game for passive, but who knows what the next decade will bring?
