While the guy was ringing it up, another bestbuy called to take it from them.

I saw the OLED when I went to pick up the pioneer and they had a nice picture but everything looked fake.
ya but im not gonna buy a product from a company who isnt making them anymore thats my problem, just a personal preference thing.

What a shame.

I heart Plasma and Pioneers line was amazing but also too pricey for me lol.

Resolution is a big one. It is harder to find a 1080p Plasma. Plasma TVs are also susceptible to image burn-in, although it isn't as bad as it used to be.
