DirecTV Confirms Move Into 3-D Realm

DirecTV on Wednesday confirmed its plans to forge ahead into the brave new world of 3-D TV, a space that is becoming increasingly crowded despite the fact that it doesn’t currently exist.

In what may have been one of the industry’s worst-kept secrets, the satellite-TV provider announced it is cooking up a pay-per-view 3-D HDTV channel, with an eye toward launching the new service in June. DirecTV officially announced the initiative on January 6, at a panel at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
