I was wondering, what would make a better big screen tv... plasma, or LCD screen. I know that plasma you have to get cleaned, but in LCD you have to change the bulbs after they burn out. I was wondering what would last longer, and have a better picture
Also, I was wondering what would be better.. I have a HD Dvd player but What is so great about Blu Ray? Is it worth upgrading to get a blu ray player? or whats the difference?
Answer
Actually, Plasma's aren't that much expensive compared to a similar sized LCD with comparable features.
Plasmas are heavier than LCDs, and are suited more for rooms in which you can control the amount of light mainly due to reflections from their reflective (shiny) screen surface.
Some LCDs have this type of screen as well, but there are many that don't.
As far as lifespan goes, you will be happy with either one, they will both last about 10 years for an average user.
As for the HD-DVD vs. Blu-Ray, Blu-Ray pretty much won the battle with Toshiba and other major movie studios dropping HD-DVD in favour of Blu-Ray.
If you buy certain HD TVs you may be able to get a Blu-Ray DVD player for free. But even Blu-Ray is not at its full potential yet; it has higher capacity than HD DVDs, and will have more interactive features in the near future.
Most of the current Blu-Ray DVD players out there don't have the software support for this, but a playstation 3, which is a great gaming console and a Blu-Ray DVD player is a sexy package, will be upgradable easily and for free.
That being said, you will only truely appreciate the capabilities of HD-DVD or Blu-Rays if you're watching DVDs on TVs 46"+ with 1080p.
So my recommendation would be go buy the 40GB Playstation 3, and a 46" 1080p Samsung or Sony LCD TV if your budget allows. These two will cost $2200 to $4000 together, before taxes.
Have fun shopping!
