Sky’s 3D Channel Gets Launch Date of October 1st

If your one of those early adopters of a 3DTV you’ll be more than excited to hear that Sky have finally announced that 3D content drought will end on October 1st.

If you have a 3D TV, and a Sky+HD box and  the top channel subscription package you willl be able to enjoy the new 3D-only channel at no extra cost – obviously you’ll have to splash the cash on the TV but apart from that you are good to go.

The channel will offer a range of programme types, from sport to hollywood movies. The inital line-up include coverage of both the forthcoming Ryder Cup golf tournament and Premier League football – so you’ll be about to watch Blackpool in full 3D quality.

Jeremy Darroch, Sky’s Chief Executive, said:  “As with High Definition, 3D is set to transform the way TV is enjoyed in homes nationwide.   Following hot on the heels of the success of 3D cinema, Sky customers will now be the first anywhere in Europe to experience 3D TV from the comfort of their living rooms.  They can look forward to a fantastic mix of live sport, blockbuster movies, and innovative entertainment and arts shows.”

This will come as a welcome relief to the companies who are pushing 3D as there hasn’t been any 3D content since the whole 3D revolution a few months ago. Finally you won’t have to suffer too much longer.
