So it's time for me to finally get rid of the ol' tube tele and get a HDTV.
I have some requirements like it has to be close to 50", energy star, and 1080p. Lets ignore the cost for now.
I am kind of stuck because i dont know if i should get a LCD or a plasma. I've read that plasma are better for a 50" but all the information i've came across is around a year and two years old so i dont know how accurate they are for 2008. They also say LCD are only good below 37" but i'm seeing 50" LCD at costco.
I've also read that plasmas dont usually come with QAM tuner (HD tuner?) for HD content. I dont like that since i use comcast and i believe i need to pay monthly to use their HD box. If i can i would like not to buy their tuner and use the one in TV. I dont use on demand or HBO type channels anyway.
If anyone has an exact model for me to check out and not just general advice please give model number
