I worked for one of the largest TV production companies in the world for almost 14 years. I think I know quite a bit about different types of TVs, CRT, LCD, rear projection (not DLP) and plasma.

The comparions are quite accurate, DPL TV are quite cheap to begin with but each bulb only lasts a few years before needing replacement at several hundred dollars a pop. Perhaps the replacement bulb prices will come down before anyone actually needs to do so. It's not a same a changing a light bulb in the kitchen. It needs to be replaced by a serviceman and calibrated. That, I'm sure is more $$$ out of the wallet.
