I'm in the UK and our local ISP was doing Video on Demand over TCP/IP around 2000, it also had online shopping (deals with local stores), movies and TV shows.

They where early with a massive ADSL rollout so they had the bandwidth when much of the country was still on dial-up.

We had it as part of the beta period when I lived at home and it was really good for the time.
