    LCD definately because if you get an Plasma you will always have a glare in the tv if there are any lights in wherever you are putting this tv. When we went to the store the salesperson told us lcd is way better and shined a flashlight in the lcd…no glare…..now in the plasma….big glare….I say go for the lcd …… i have one and i loveee it it is wayy better then plasma!

    They are both pretty much the same except lets say :
    Plasma last for 1year
    LCD last for 4 years

    LCD last four time as long for similar prices

    LCD for me!

    Plasma…..we have 2 in our house. No glares from lights either. I am very satisfied with our TV’s and have had no trouble at all. I think the “burning” a picture into the screen goes for LCD and Plasmas though. We have a Hitachi and a Panasonic, both 50″ and enjoy watching HD from both of them.

    Plasma will take more electricity power, also the have a burn effect if you watch the same channel that have fixed logo. ( may be like CNN). Also due tue each pixel is light by himself, the radiation of hot it’s not good.

    Last but not least, if we see the Technology is more develop in LCD.

    i go for LCD

    Plasma is better than LCD. The problem with LCD TV’s is that they have a hard time producing crisp images out of their native resolution. In other words if you plan on watching SD channels it will look like utter crap, also their tends be a lot of glare on LCD TV’s particularly when viewing from angle. This is not a problem with Plasmas. The only problem with Plasma is that they use more energy, all that crap you hear about burn-ins are no longer a problem when buying Plasmas from Panasonic, Samsung or LG. Oh and Panasonic makes the best Plasmas period, I recommend this TV.
