Which one last longer, LCD or Plasma?

I don't know about which one lasts longer but I do know, because a kind sales person at Best Buy offered up the information for free, that the liquid plasma screens are not good in cold climates. They will freeze. Just a note on the subject, do with it what you will.

well aprantly i heard LCD do last longer then plasma but the choice is up to you and plasma you can get in bigget sizes then LCD

LCD is more reliable at this moment, but plasma is always getting more and more reliable as the technology get older and cheaper. I would suggest an LCD tv for most things, and the only reason you should get plasma is for the sheer speed of it. Nowadays with the high speed LCD that just came out (240Hz etc.) there is little reason to go with plasma besides the fact that it sounds cool to your friends.

Phasing out plasma TV's! YEAP! It's true - they're not good for the environment, nor are they good TVs.

LCDs and LEDs are now the new thing in television technology. LCD's are highly likely cheaper than LED's and are probably more popular. It really depends on what you're buying the TV for - just to watch some TV shows, gaming, movies, etc. For me and my bf - we bought the TV for gaming (we got a PS3 too). We got an LG LCD - with Blu-Ray movies, WOW! Crystal Clear! Great TV- I must say.

If you don't need one - don't buy one. The technology will just keep on improving.

P.S. I do think that BEST BUY is the most overpriced electronic store. What state do you live in? Is there a FRY'S electronics? Try them - they're usually no-hassle, and fairly priced. I'd also recommend purchasing from the internet - but make sure you do your research on the TV and go to either Best Buy or whatever electronic store to check out the TV before purchasing it online.
