Hook DVDs

Why do networks not sell cheap "hook" DVDs with the first one or two episodes of a popular series on them?

I know my grandmother (pictured here) would like Downton Abbey if she only watched the first episode, and she might like The Wire, John Adams, and Yes, Minister if she tried them. But the only way I can get her to try them is to buy a whole season of each. Or, you know, just steal the first episodes. I'm nervous about trying theft., though I've seen enough episodes of Cops to know that I'll never outrun them.
