Internet enabled 3D TVs will be used for porn. There will be relatively little regular source material.

I tried out the best 3d tv that they had at the Fry’s Superstore, wasn’t impressed.
They said it will be more effective if the screen was bigger and the room is dark like a theater. That just isn’t how we watch tv.
We will wait, not worth the price and in our mind it didn’t work.

I remain amazed at the amount of money that was surely sunk into a technology that had virtually zero chance of widespread consumer acceptance. Folks are not gonna sit around in their homes wearing $200-each glasses to watch TV. Never had a chance.

I’ve got no particular interest in 3D. If I’m going to wear something on my head to watch a movie it should be full-immersion VR. Now THAT would sell.

the dirty little secret is that BROADCAST HDTV is a bomb. Everyone I know who tries to receive it over the air has problems with reception.

The subject of 3D TV reminds me of the line from Jurassic Park which went something like "... you spent all this time thinking about what you can do, but never thought about what you should do...".

I called this as soon as it was announced on this ping list.
The demand for 3D will be very limited.

“The last thing the industry needs is consumers starting to believe that 3D is simply ‘not worth it,’” Greenfield said. “The movie industry cannot afford a wide-spread consumer backlash against (3D)." What makes him think the consumer ever believed 3D was worth it in the first place? It's always been a gimmick that impressed little kids and very few others. Come up with a 3D holo-projector that requires no glasses, and minds may change.
