I like Sont and Samsung personally. Both are very well made and have great picture quality.
I think an LCD is a much better choice. The burn-in factor #1 and the reliability. Plus, it will last and keep working longer (and I think a good deal longer without drop in quality etc.)

I believe the best TV out there right now is the Sony Bravia XBR LCD HDTV. Everyone at my works thinks the same, as does anyone who owns it that I know andmost people that sit and see a demo of it.
