Default Bright headlights keep burning out

Does anyone else find that the newer variety of bright headlights burn out really quick. I had tried some Sylvania bulbs (30% brighter than OEM) a while ago and they burnt out in about 6 months. Bought another set and they too lasted about 6 months. So I switched to GE Nighthawk Platinums (90% brighter) and after 3 months the low beam is burnt out on one of them. FWIW, I put on rubber gloves when installing so that I didn't get oil on the bulb. I think I'll save my money from now on and just buy the cheaper ones. They may not be as bright but at least they seem to last for a few years.
