I had a plasma for 6 years and loved it. It died and i went to bestbuy to get another one. I got an LED one. When I got it home, I immediately noticed the difference. Brought it back to bestbuy the next day and spent $50 bucks more for the same size plasma and haven't looked back. As plasmas are being phased out, I'm sure my next big tv will have to be LCD or LED. :(
