We had 2 tv's setup showing the same blu-ray disc one tv was a 50" plasma the other was a 50" led backlit, and as soon as they saw it they always chose the plasma as they, have better colour's sharper picture and no smearing of fast paced movement's that lcd and led backlit tv's have.

Still 3d tv's are not worth the money yet as there is nothing out there to utilise it fully yet for everday use, unless your going to watch the same thing all the time every day.
