I wonder if different screen technology at the time made it worse (CRT then, vs LCD now)?

Hmm, I bet it has more to do with brightness and contrast more than anything else. So, in that respect, CRTs are significantly dimmer than modern LCDs. Additionally, CRTs were just much smaller than most people's living room TVs these days, so it would take up a much smaller portion of somebody's field of view. It's an interesting question though.
