MGM Home Entertainment is the home video and DVD distribution arm of MGM.

In 1979, MGM joined forces with CBS by establishing MGM/CBS Home Video. CBS also distributed MGM's movies until 1983. The label was renamed to MGM/UA Home Video in 1983, releasing all of the MGM/UA movie library. In 1997, MGM/UA introduced MGM DVD by releasing all of their post-1986 films and TV shows by MGM/UA. Until 1998, Orion Home Video was folded into MGM/UA Home Entertainment. The label was promoted to MGM/UA Home Entertainment in 2001 and the name "UA" was dropped and renamed again to MGM Home Entertainment, releasing all of the movies and TV shows by MGM, United Artists, Orion, Filmways, American International, and Samuel Goldwyn. In 2005, SPHE now distributes the MGM film and television library.
