I bought 3 Samsung Plasma screens from Circuit City.. The first one blew out in 1 week. The 2nd one got burn-in after a week (side bars from 4:3 shows). The 3rd one is upstairs in the bedroom.. it's fine, but burn-ins exist.

The living room now has a 1080p LCD. Looks great.. no burn-ins.

If plasma didnt suffer from burn-in.. i'd go with plasma, since it does produce a more vibrant picture. But newer LCDs have much higher contrast ratios now.. and you wont ever have to worry about burn-ins.

I'd go with:
Movies only?: Plasma .. wont have to worry about side-bar burn-ins.
a lot of TV?: LCD... no burn-ins.
