plasma generally tend give better PQ but most people by LCD for practicality and reliability.
If you use HTPC it's best to stick with LCD..evne though burn ins isnt an issues with new plasma panels.

I just read the CNet Plasma vs LCD, it's so obviously biased towards Plasma it's not even funny, still has some decent info though.
LED TV's will be amazing though, should have all of the best features from both LCD and Plasma more or less.
One question I have though, does Plasma still require the glass on top of the screen?

LCD is using Liquid Crystal.
its totally different way to reproduction the colours.
As i know plasma is relying on phosphor.
Yes, every plasma TVs are using glass on top.
In professional reviews, Most the time Plasma are the winners.
For best Movie experience, i would pick Plasma as well.

And i work for FS... 
It really depends on who you bump into in the store.... XDDD
Honestly, i spend so much $$ on Home Theatre stuff after i joined FS.
Everytime, i see new TVs, I just wanna buy them.... 
right now, we just starting carry Martin Logan speakers. Thinking of getting that babe in xmas time.
Time to spend $$ again

Yes LCD uses liquid crystal, plasma uses phosphors, the pixels are still made up of the same mix of red/blue/green though (there's usually more green)
That's another factor of LCD vs Plasma, if you have a lot of lights or windows that will be on when your TV is on, then plasmas can get a lot of glare. If it's a dark, dedicated media room, then glare isn't an issue.

well do you have windows in the room the tv will be in? or lights that will be on a lot? that was a big factor for us as there's big windows down one wall, and the glass front of the plasma would've given way too much glare.

say, if you have direct lighting into your TV spot. In this case, better go for LCD.
Unless you don't care about the glare, and want the best colour ...etc. like my colleague. lol
But if you always watch TV at night time.
You are fine with plasma.
Plasma colour is better than LCD.
But you gatta check both Colours before getting them.
Different person, prefer different colour.
