buy something relatively high-end and ride on that for 8 years
mind you i'm not someone who has their TV on 30 hours a week so I haven't seen failures before

That's what I did for my first flatscreen. Spent a lot on a 40" Sony XBR 10 years ago... Said I would use it til it died but it's a long time and opinions change... Been wanting to upgrade to something bigger for years now and the only thing holding me back was I spent so damn much on that TV. That's why now, I have a price point and I buy as big a TV as I can get for that price point. Upgrading it in 4-5 years won't bother me so much now.
I only managed to upgrade it recently because my dad said his monitor was on its way out. Gave the TV to him as a monitor and got myself a $900 65" hisense.
