It is targeted for the Chinese market where, I presume, the 3D sticker sells.

  But the US market is also filled with 3D crap. In the theaters as well. Pretty much everyone I know opts for the non-3D one when available. I guess they just want to justify gouging us for the extra $5 by forcing 3D on us.

    This really doesn't have anything to do with the article, though. A Chinese based company is releasing a relatively low-price-point TV for the Chinese market. The US market has had many 3D LCD sets, but this is really notable only for mainland China consumers.

    The US domestic market is filled with 3D movies precisely because the Chinese market demands them. They are shown in the US to drive international distribution.

    I am ready to pay more at the cinemas just to have the revolutionary 2D technology available. Sadly everything comes out in 3d :(
