DIRECTV 2 Go 3D

DIRECTV recently announced it is entering in to a strategic relationship that will bring 3D TV nationwide. Beginning in June 2010, DIRECTV HD customers will receive a free software upgrade enabling them to have access to three dedicated 3D channels if they have 3D television sets.

Panasonic will be the exclusive presenting sponsor of DIRECTV's new high definition 3D channels, leveraging their current relationships with programming partners and movie studios to obtain new and existing 3D content. DIRECTV says that it is currently working with AEG/AEG Digital Media, CBS, Fox Sports/FSN, Golden Boy Promotions, HDNet, MTV, NBC Universal and Turner Broadcasting System, Inc., to develop additional 3D programming that will debut in 2010-2011.

"We led the way with HD and we are excited to do the same with 3D," said Eric Shanks, executive vice president, DIRECTV Entertainment. "Adding the most HD channels to our lineup gave customers a viewing experience that was incredibly lifelike; adding 3D to the mix will take that one step further allowing them to become part of the cast as the picture comes to life in their living rooms."
