" 3D in any of its 2016 televisions, while LG is only adding the feature to its most expensive models, cutting the number of TVs it sells with 3D capabilities from 40% in 2015 to 20% this year.

3D HDTV's have been in decline for a few years now but this is a major blow . I wonder how much of this is simply because 4K TV technology is the new hot item and regular HDTV's are also in decline. I know glasses Free 3D technology will be present on certain 4K televisions such as the 

ULTRA D technology. So I see this being the final death nail for "traditional 3D" on standard HDTV's . Will glasses free 4K 3D technology be able to save the home market? Who knows only time will tell .
