Interesting let me look around I could be mixing stuff up. I probably should have said lamps. I'm not too sure as I don't have an LCD but my friends do end up getting replacement stuff.

"LCD TV Life span
Life span, the number of viewing hours a television provides before dimming to half brightness, is one of the biggest advantages LCD has over plasma. Though the numbers vary among the different brands, plasma TVs offer 30,000 to 60,000 hours to half life, while LCD TVs last for up to 60,000 and possibly longer if bulb replacement is an option. "

bulb/lamps or whatever they want to be called. I just know my friends have had to replace them and after 2 years I'm yer to touch my rear projection.

However that being said I'd get an LCD if I didn't have room.
