Could Discovery3D be launching on dish?

[goaliebob99]

I have gotten word through some various production channels, that Discovery is working with Sony, and various other partners to produce and deliver content to discovery for a new 3d channel which is still in conception, but will launch soon. I certainly expect to see this on Directv, but with Sony's involvement in the project makes you wonder, if the announcements that include Sony's Fear net Channel, could include some sort of form of Discovery in 3D?

Only one can speculate!

A channel that is still in conception will not be launching soon.

So few people have 3D HDTVs, I doubt it is much of a priority. Although, with DISH...who knows?

Maybe they will develop QVC 3D. We can only speculate. Or, via further speculation, the TV Guide channel in 3D, they still show a guide on that channel right?

Of course, ultimately, the RSN's would have 3D, but not 24/7, just to piss off a couple subscribers.

How many people had HDTVs when Discovery launched DicoveryHD?

How many people then bought HDTVs after seeing DiscoveryHD at a friend's home?

3DTV adoption is following the same path HDTV adoption did. Fortunately, this time around, Dish will not have to replace receivers/satellites because 3DTV works with existing standards. That will speed things up considerably.

DirectTV and Comcast already offer 3DTV. If Dish wishes to remain competitive, they have no choice but to add 3DTV this year.

And they will add 3D this year.
