Well okay I had the Escaflowne series (I... sold it by now) but that was bought during a sale that a store had so it was cheaper. I forget what a DVD cost when I bought the overall anime ones... something like 20€ or a bit more?

Even today, Japanese new releases hardly ever give more than two to three episodes per disc for about the same price as those old VHS tapes.
Anime is probably never going to be cheaper than live-action shows due to licensing fees, translation costs, hiring voice actors to dub it, etc., but it's still a lot cheaper than it used to be.

Really? My brother had two VHS tapes of El Hazard's anime version and each of them had 4 episodes on them. The previews and ads were in German, but I'm pretty sure the episodes were Japanese with sub...

IIRC, El Hazard was more of a late 90's release as well, which was about the time you could start getting more episodes per tape.
Of course, it could vary by region, too. Are you talking European releases or American?
