This was from July 2013, so may not be relevant since the new take over
When we questioned Virgin Media as to why it is pushing 3D TV after the BBC said just last week that its service will cease at the end of the year because so far uptake has been minimal, the UK ISP said that although 3D "is not setting the world on fire" it still sees it as a valuable add-on to its service.
"The 3D market continues to develop and mature and, with one million 3D shows watched on demand since we launched in 2010, our customers have enjoyed getting a taste of the 3D experience from the comfort of their own sofas," a Virgin Media spokesperson told The INQUIRER.
