plasma owns but its real $ and CAN burn in
LCD is expensive, but colors aren't as good and ghosting CAN occur but not usually in TV because the refresh rate is slower and the backlight can burn out.
Projection - uhh i dunno
CRT - big, drain power, eye strain - but cheap and decent picture.

Projection is terrible, and the newer Flat-Tube HDTV own, and take less of a hit in your wallet than before. You arent likely to get eye strain unless you sit 5 feet away from the screen and/or have less than 20' tv.
