I'm looking forward to hearing you wax lyrical about the superiority of vinyl over CD's and digital recordings next! I'll even give you a hand in your research efforts - Panasonic has just started remanufacturing their highend turntables again. Go on Rollo, race out and purchase a few - you know you want to!

Now GStan, you do know pretty much every 1080p plasma ever built stomp's a mud hole in your HiSense TVs ass on every relevant image quality metric, right? (and probably my Sharp and Samsung as well)
Whether LCDs are cheaper to manufacture, ship, and purchase is irrelevant- it's not like plasmas were expensive.
Electricity is pretty much free, and no one keeps TVs longer than plasmas last.
LCDs that are cheaper than plasmas certainly don't produce superior blacks, and resolution higher than 1080p won't matter for a while.
Don't know what you're talking about with blurriness. Plasma is pretty much the gold standard of clear motion.
