For many years, USAirways got the Airbuses delivered with the LCD screens above the left and right sides of the cabin, every several rows. I remember when they were ripped out not long after the HP-US merger, with management claiming the reduced costs in weight, maintenance and content licensing would save them millions.

I did find some pics of AA planes with the screens in both the aisle and over the seats/under the overhead bins on 737's.
