3DTV is now being hailed as the future. As little as a few years ago, the possibility of people being able to watch 3D in their own homes would have been unfathomable. Now though, the service is already available to those who want it. Getting this 3D in your home isn’t difficult or costly either, and with Sky, it couldn’t be simpler.

You don’t need to sign up to a special service to get 3D in your home. All you need is an HD box, 3D ready TV, and to be a Sky World HD customer. If you meet all these requirements, then the 3D service is free! You just need is a pair of 3D glasses and some popcorn, and you can sit back and experience something really special. It’s great for kids too, as they can be entertained for hours. All 12 movie channels are available in 3D too, so you can always have plenty to choose from.

Although access to 3DTV is a huge perk of having an HD Box, there are other benefits too. Sky plus HD box comes with loads of control features, so you are put in the driving seat. You can pause Live TV if you get disturbed, rewind Live TV to see a great moment again, and record any programme you like. You can also record a whole series too, as every episode will automatically record at the click of a button. Parental controls are another great feature, and can give mum and dad greater peace of mind when it comes to what their children are watching.

As expected, the HD Box allows access to a whole range of HD channels. These channels largely depend on which TV pack you have, but can include sports, movies, documentaries and kids shows. Also, sports in HD aren’t available with any other provider.
