In Approval

With both the Discovery Channel and ESPN announcing that they would launch 3DTV channels with the Dish Network and others within the next year and manufacturers showing off their new 3DTV sets at CES in Vegas, the entire television industry is excited about the promise that 3DTV brings.

But, will it actually change the way that people watch television that HDTV did just a few years ago? When we asked consumers what would prevent them from buying a 3DTV this year most respondents said they were too expensive. That was followed by a feeling they didn’t need one. Glasses came up third on the list while lack of programming appeared to be least of everyone’s concerns.

With more buyers saying high prices are the main obstacle, aggressive pricing, especially like we have seen for HDTVs in the past around Black Friday and the holidays, might help remove that obstacle and drive more 3DTV sales. Said differently, If affordability is the primary concern for consumers, the answer to this problem is lower priced 3DTV sets.

Experts in the business feel that someday in the near future, 3d electronics will be commonplace; so makers are hoping to be the first to offer the 3d devices and services for home use. Is the public ready for 3D TV? Yes! We want it and Dish Network will deliver it to you.
