How widespread was cable until the early 80's? How many channels? How many households had VCRs? Not many.
Back before Raiders the whole structure of the movie industry was more like it was than like what it would become. The biggest difference was Jaws and Star Wars and the dawning of the age of the Summer Blockbuster. Add into that the ever-developing Electronic Sandbox to play in (increasingly versatile visual FX applications), and it's not so much that Raiders is to blame as it is the one where it first seriously came together.
