Sony’s 3D Experience channel tops 10 million views, some people like the extra dimension

Since kicking off its free 3D Experience channel, Sony has managed to notch up 10 million viewers in just short of six months. The channel offers up samples of music, movies, sports and documentaries for free, in an effort to tempt viewers into ponying up cash for the full experience.

WealthTV 3D joining handful of 3D networks

The network we love to hate has made it a long way in the four years since we promised to never cover it again because of its ridiculous claims . Not only is it still on the air, but Herring Broadcasting has announced it will be adding a linear 3D channel to the existing handful of 3D channels that includes ESPN 3D , n3D and 3net . No word on any broadcaster carriage agreements, yet, but WealthTV 3D has spent two years producing original 3D content in anticipation of the launch and viewers can currently tune in online via Roku boxes.

Sony demos 24- and 46-inch glasses-free 3DTVs, we go eyes-on (video)

Take a quick tour of the showroom floor here at CES and you’ll certainly see, 3D days are here again — at least, where flat panel manufacturers are concerned. And while the industry continues to pump out mass market iterations of the living room tech that hinge upon hideous eyewear, companies like Sony are hard at work behind-the-scenes refining displays that won’t make you look a fool. The autostereoscopic panels, shown off at the company’s booth in 24- and 46-inch models — employ a subtle 3D effect that isn’t immediately noticeable.

Meet LG’s Ultra Definition (Yep!) 84-Inch Monster TV

HDTV is cool, I guess, but it’s going to be hard to go back after looking at LG’s ultra-def 4k display, which packs four times the pixels as a 1080p set. It’s mind-bogglingly crisp and enormously… enormous

LG Cinema Screen LCD HDTVs slice bezel to 1mm, let two players share one TV

LG has been pushing its flavor of 3DTV as Cinema 3D, and now it has slipped the theater related nomenclature onto another feature, the 1mm thin LCD bezels it has dubbed “Cinema Screen”. It claims this move brings the experience closer to the theater, but that’s not the only new feature for 2012

China to get its first 3D TV channel within weeks

Half a billion TV set owners could soon have the perfect excuse for an upgrade: a new 3D channel that has already started broadcasting on a trial basis and is due to launch officially over the Chinese New Year. Operated by China Central TV and a handful of local stations, it’ll transmit 4.5 hours of free-to-air fuzzy red and green content each day, which can be picked up by anyone with a hi-def set-top box and a 3D TV. They won’t have to watch it on a 71-inch 21:9 panel , but it’ll certainly help

ESPN’s new Monday Night Football deal includes 3D broadcasts, WatchESPN app

Just hours before the 2011 NFL season kicks off, the ESPN and the NFL announced a new eight year extension for Monday Night Football that runs from 2014 to 2021 and most notably to us, includes a provision for 3D broadcast rights. The new deal covers items from new studio programming (beginning this season) to availability of games on the WatchESPN mobile app to the Pro Bowl we still won’t watch. According to the LA Times , the pricetag for ESPN — before it’s passed on to the cable / satellite company and eventually ends up on your bill in a rate increase — is around $1.9 billion per season, up from $1.1 billion previously.
