3D movies on iTunes

So now that everyone and their grandmother has a 3D TV set and it is very much a standard, let's raise the question from the dead. Is iTunes ever going to support 3D movies?

Hahahha :-D and now that grandmas have left their TV as legacy to thier grandchildren ?

I see the original post was about 4 years ago, AND if I'm repeating spikesagal... Since there are now more 3D TVs than 2D (whether you wanted the feature or not)... AND since Netflix now has hundreds of movies in 3D... let's resurrect this question again: Is iTunes ever going to support 3D movies?

I'm actually looking at buying my digital movies elsewhere because iTunes is just about the only distributor of digital movies that doesn't offer 3D nowadays.

Not even close.

Apple has not commented on it.

Personally, I doubt it.

Apple seems to be ignoring the market and try to manipulate their loyal clientele by keeping quiet on certain obvious topics that would require them to invest in the trending features. This is very annoying and it discourages use of the iTunes as far as I can tell you. My friends are saying the same. I am stepping away from iTunes going forward and will be back in the local best buy store to pick up my movies there... which currently come with the UV digital copy - not iTunes. BTW, I have always appreciated more having a BD disk in a box with a cover etc. then a digital file that who knows how long would be supported. Having no 3d movies on iTunes - no problem - I go elsewhere to buy them.

You mean they are following the market.

The 3D television fad is over.

that would require them to invest in the trending features.

As a stock owner, I'm happy they don't invest in "trends" but concentrate on the longer end game.

As a stock owner, you would appreciate the lost revenues of 2D movies that go with the 3D bundle bought elsewhere. I will not abandon iTunes because of the lack of 3D, but I will be, and already have been, buying less movies on iTunes than before, because i already got the 2D version of those movies with the 3D bundle. I will never, ever, buy TinTin, Pacific Rim, Avatar, Coraline, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, Monster House, Lincoln Vampire Hunter, Jack the Giant Slayer, The Three Musketeers....need I go on???....etc, etc, on iTunes, because I loved them in 3D and have bought them, including the 2D version elsewhere.

Please don't...

@Chris. You obviously don't grasp the concept of a rhetorical question. May I suggest some grammar lessons? 😉

What does grammar have to do with this?

I feel apple not carrying 3d is a reason to buy the 3d blu ray still or use VUDU which is supporting the content

I have VHS player and I feel Apple not selling VHS tapes is a hindrance and poor business model...
