Well, how close do you want to sit to your 50" TV? If you're too close, then all of the noise and fuzziness in a 480p DVD picture will be VERY evident. Also, if you get rear projection or LCD, you may see a "screen door" effect or the actual illuminated pixels in the image (this doesn't happen with plasma). Plasma has a few hassles of its own, especially the amount of heat given off by the set, which can be an issue in some rooms and climates.
I would suggest that if you are going for DVD and not anything higher-rez, like BluRay or HDTV, you would do fine with a closeout 720p or 1080i set--no need to buy the latest and most expensive models.
