The Glasses Are Too Expensive For a Family Some TV makers bundled one free pair of 3D glasses with each 3D TV purchase. But what about a family of four? Or, a family of six? Or, a family of eight. Large families do exist, you know. (Just watch any Discovery channel documentary if you don't believe me.) With the glasses costing up to $150 a pop, how can even a mid-sized family afford one for everyone? My wife recently went out and bought a LG HDTV with 3-D and it came with 4 pairs of glasses and also said that the cheep throw-away glasses they give you at the movie theaters will work as well.
As to the other comments in the article, I tend to agree. It's a nice 3-D effect, but it's not all that exciting to me.

We got two pairs with the television, and with the 3-D starter kit offered by Amazon we got a samsung Blu Ray player, five movies and two more pairs of glasses for free.
I guess they are really trying to push it.
