3net
American 3D television channel
3net was an American 3D television channel that launched on February 13, 2011. It was a joint venture between Discovery Communications, Sony and IMAX Corporation. The partnership was announced in June 2010, and the channel was previewed publicly at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show.
