anything digital 1080p lcd. plasma burn out quick and sometimes get burn in effect if the screen stays the same for awhile,example a kid plays video game and leveas it on pause for 20min it could burn image to screen. or if you watch a channel with a icon on the screen for a long time.even with the change over most cable tv is 720. with blue ray and high def 1080 is top notch try best buy samsung or lg sears also price matches.
