First Dedicated 3D TV Network Startup in the US?

“We fully plan to have, as soon as we can acquire the library, the first full-time 3-D network in the country,” Donaldson told Daily Variety.

Despite many set top boxes not supporting 3D technology, many Hi-Def Televisions do come ready to support 3D broadcasting as it becomes available.

The company hopes to ship 3D ready set top boxes for around $50 including glasses.

The move follows Japan’s Nippon Broadcasting who launched a limited schedule of 3-D programming over a satellite channel in 2008.

The plan is for AMG to be broadcasting in 3-D several hours a day by year’s end.

Terry Elaqua, prexy of AMG TV, said, “I think in the baby stages of this you’ll see a series of specials” that would be released on the network and made available elsewhere.
