On Demand Questions

[ChetK]

I have been told that HBO OnDemand has the following 3D Movies:

• Abe Lincoln Vampire Hunter
• Epic
• Gravity
• Madagascar 3
• R.I.P.D.
• Rise of the Guardians
• Wolverine

And Starz OnDemand has the following 3D Movies:

• Battle of the Year
• Frozen CC
• Monsters University
• One Direction
• Oz , The Great and Powerful
• Planes
• Thor: Dark World

However, when I went to both HBO and Starz OnDemand from the Guide on my Hopper, none of these titles were available in 3D.

Does Dish have any plans to add 3D to their OnDemand libraries? This feels like we're not getting all we're paying for.

Finally, we subscribe to Showtime, but there's no Showtime Anytime. Again, I am paying the same rate that I would be with any other provider for this premium channel. Why don't I have access to Showtime Anytime?

No premium channel 3D available on Dish or Directv, nor is there likely to be, just a couple or three of the cable companies. And I would not bet on their longevity. 3D has gone by the wayside, again. Showtime Anytime probably won't be available until after the next negotiation with CBS. Dish has never promised nor marketed 3D content other than PPV movies.

Little birdie told me that the negotiations for Showtime take place in December.
