Sky: UK, Germany and Italy commit to 3D

Quote:
Over two intensive days at MIPtv which focused entirely on 3DTV, senior staff from BSkyB, Sky-Deutschland and Sky Italia, all confirmed their commitment to growing their investment in 3DTV.
John Cassy, BSkyB’s director of 3D said that while he could not be specific about numbers, he was already budgeting an increased spend in 2013 as part of Sky’s five-year plan for 3DTV. “All our viewer satisfaction rankings go through the roof for 3D,” he told delegates at MIPtv’s 3DTV Focus event in Cannes.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

It would appear TCM HD has launched now in France , it was mentioned last year in an investors presentation as coming to Sky so could arrive at some point.
