Some of the pros and cons!
I have also been wondering, while looking for a new tv, what are some of the good and bad of each type of tv. I found this on Consumer Reports. It sure helped me.
LCD FLAT-PANEL HDTV
Good choice if you want a smaller, thin set.
Common screen sizes 15 to 37 inches.
Typical prices $1,000 to $1,500 for a 26-inch wide-screen HD-ready set; $1,200 to $2,000 for a similar 32-inch model.
Pros Thin, light sets that can be wall-mounted. The best display very good, bright HD images. Antireflective screen minimizes glare from bright light. No risk of burn-in from fixed items displayed onscreen for long periods of time.
Cons Price goes up sharply as screen size increases. Most sets can't render deepest black, and some can't distinguish subtle shades of gray and black. Fast motion may blur. Viewing angle on some models may be limited. Long-term reliability not yet known, but preliminary data indicate low rate of repairs during the first year.
