Entertainment in the 90s

Did you know that Netflix got its start in the 90s? In fact, in 1997 it was created by Marc Rudolph and Reed Hastings. For a monthly fee, one could rent unlimited movies. As we know now, Netflix is now very lucrative with their streaming services.
Many tv shows that were popular in the 90s are still popular today. One example that comes to mind is FRIENDS, it has made a recent resurgence among youth culture. Seinfeld dominated the 90s. When I asked my dad what shows he watched his only response was Seinfeld.
Some music that is still well-known includes Wannabe by the Spice Girls, Hit Me Baby One More Time by Britney Spears, Gangsta's Paradise by Coolio, and All Star by Smash Mouth. The list goes on but to save time I will end it there.
It sure does seem like a lot has changed since the 90s but maybe not as much as one might think. How does the 90s come into your life?
