I honestly doubt this will take off, but it'll be interesting as a tech demo for what AR/VR can be at the highest end.

And, you'll want it full quality if you are gonna be watching in 3D. Since compression messes with the depth in 3D movies by not compressing the left eye and right eye view both the same as they should be to look right. It doesn't know or take into account what the other eye is currently supposed to see. It treats both sides as individual flat pictures, and only makes sure they make sense with the frame before and after.

Until someone makes a whole new compression algorithm with 3D in mind, it'll dramatically lower the quality of the depth compared to how much it lowers the quality of the video.
