Yabazam Upgrades LG 3D TV App With 3D VOD Service

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 7, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DDD Group plc (AIM:DDD), the 3D solutions company, has launched the upgraded version of its Yabazam 3D video app for LG 3D Smart TVs, which streams 3D programs on a video on demand (VOD) basis.

The Yabazam 3D app is the first dedicated 3D video app in the US to allow consumers to rent original 3D movies and TV shows. It brings the complete library of 3D content available at Yabazam.com to LG 3D Smart TVs.

The app is supported on more than 50 LG 3D Smart TV models and is available in the US, UK, Germany, Korea, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Initially launched to stream free 3D movie trailers, Yabazam 3D became LG's most popular free TV app after its first week of release.

Yabazam features a wide range of 3D content, including independently produced 3D movies, documentaries, live action comedies and animated features from producers around the world. Its recent deal with WealthTV brings a bounty of added travel and lifestyle programming.

DDD is aggressively growing the range of 3D programs available on Yabazam and is releasing new 3D titles on a weekly basis.

Chris Yewdall, Chief Executive of DDD, said:

"We are very pleased with the success of the early version of the Yabazam 3D app. LG's 3D TV customers have demonstrated their desire for new 3D content and these latest advances will allow them to further enjoy Yabazam's diverse 3D programming."

Yabazam was launched in late 2009 and was the first online portal to offer high definition 3D movies. Since then, Yabazam 3D content has become a mainstay feature of many of the latest 3D notebook and personal computers from leading brands. The new Smart TV 3D app expands Yabazam's reach to a much wider audience that is looking for compelling content to watch on 3D TVs.
