    The movies of the late 90s are great examples of this. Dozens of different types of new stories made on what are now considered very low budgets. The problem is that without the home video and TV markets those sorts of movies don’t make any money. So many 90s classics didn’t make much at the box office but made bank on home video or with licensing.

    Market conditions have changed, and the product needs to change with it. Just like how MTV hasn’t been “music television” for a long, long time.
