Have been looking into getting a new tv and can't decide between the many options available these days.
The viewing distance will be 10'-12' in a not so bright room. Main reason for getting a new set is for viewing BD and a little bit of cable junk.
Here's the dilemma: 42" 1080p plasma is around the same price as a 50" 720p plasma. Do I want a higher res. or a larger screen? Do I scrape the bottom of the barrel and get a 50" 1080p? What about LCDs? Are they worth their weight in salt? Are vampires always stronger than werewolves?
Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
