With the price of 3DTV's coming down as well as the size an quality going up dramatically over the year, I was not surprised to see a report from the Hollywood Reporter, that 3D movie home sales is increasing. Heck, a 42 inch vizo is down to sub $500 and that cheap Sony we reviewed in July is already down another 10%, there is no reason to think that trend will not continue, and that has to bode well for the home market.
"The week ended Oct. 14, 20th Century Fox’s Prometheus, in its first week in stores, generated 25% of its unit sales from the 3D version (which, it should be noted, came with an extra bonus disc to encourage sales), according to Nielsen VideoScan. Since 76% of Prometheus sales were of a Blu-ray configuration, that means 33% of Prometheus Blu-ray shoppers opted for the 3D edition -- a collector’s set that included the film on Blu-ray 3D, regular Blu-ray, DVD, and digital copy (iTunes and UltraViolet).
