I will concede that plasma does indeed have better overall picture quality than led, but it also has significant downsides that turned it into a niche product and effectively killed it. The power consumption is terrible. It has burn in. You can't use it in a bright room. You can't use it with kids or video games. It goes dim over time. Some sets turned pink over time. The list goes on and on. And then you have led which looks almost as good without any of plasma's downsides. I'm glad I'm not a videophile because I can guarantee you that my kids would have killed a plasma by now many times over. It would be like a mirror in my bright living room as well. So if you're a single guy living in a basement and you don't pay for electricity, yeah, get a plasma. For the rest of us led is by far the better choice. Products like plasma don't die for no reason. The people have spoken.
