How about "personal media" or even "personal video media" and "personal audio media"?

Some additional thoughts:
 * Wasn't Dreamland available on Red Button before it was broadcast?
 * Some thoughts on Simplicity's Sake and Global premiere...
 * A lot of the release information is VERY muddled, and getting more so. You guys are some of the few places that keep it understandable. But fiddly bits on different release methods in different countries can make it clear if somebody needs to use "HOMEVID" or "TV".
 * Now, I know this is not necessarily a problem within the scope of the wiki, but properly sources and accurate additional release information are valuable to people. I don't have BBC America as an option in my television service, and I'm currently quietly freaking out about the quickest legal way to watch the new episodes, as all the official info seems to point to BBC America. I have no way of verifying the information in alternate sources but you guys seem trustworthy. It would be a shame if we're ignoring a chance to keep a reliable, accurate record of a topical issue.
 * "Rose is available by subscription to Netflix" would actually need to be "Rose has been available by subscription under Netflix's streaming video plans". There is a contract between Netflix and the content owner that may have a defined end date (like Miracle Day), be renegotiated to remove the episode, or may even be dropped by Netflix for other reasons. That being said, the knowledge that you MAY be able to get it on Netflix is important to people who may be searching frantically for a legal way to watch it.
