10 Reasons 3D Will Succeed Why 3D will find an important niche in the home theater experience.

Glasses - Consumers have shown they'll don 3D glasses in large public venues (i.e. theaters and theme parks). Why wouldn't they do so in the privacy of their own home. Glasses are also a stop-gap as auto-stereoscopic technologies develop and the associated price tag softens.

TV Watching is Social - While 3D viewing may alter the social atmosphere, it also heightens immersion. The times 3D will be most interesting are the times you're so immersed in the content that you won't want to talk to the person next to you. It's not for the news, SportsCenter, or AMC.

Compatibility - Nearly every major upgrade in home theater content has had associated hardware upgrades. Dolby Digital? DVD? HDTV? Blu-ray? All required new hardware to varying degrees. Some early adopters will abandon perfectly good equipment for the latest and greatest, while others upgrade through attrition. It's all happened before and will happen again.
