Free 3D?

[jb37101]

Hi,

Is there any free 3D content on FIOS? I have the standard package. I know there is some on demand stuff (is any for purchase or is it all rental?), but I'm looking for something I can save on the DVR - just to show off 3D when people come over to visit.

Thanks!

Yes some.  VOD has a few free 3D.   Occasionally some special event is included in 3D on a special channel.

More in certain packages.  ESPN 3D is included, I think in Ultimate.  VOD has a Starz 3D and HBO 3D if you subscribe to the corresponding movie packages

I just talked to a FIOS rep and was told the 3D movies are extra even if you subscribe to those premium channels that carry it, which I think does not make sense. So check to make sure your 3D movies are not treated like a Flex-view on demand movie

The rep is incorrect...there is no additional charge for those selections.  Having recently seen SPIDER-MAN and BAIT (a surprisingly entertaining movie, BTW) in 3D, as well as numerous others in the past, there's never been an extra charge.

But I think it's a shame that FIOS does not allow the 3D versions of movies featured on their FIOS MOVIE NIGHT to be included.
