2006: Year for LCD or Plasma?

PC World reports that Samsung is seeing 2006 as a year for huge growth in LCD TV market. Specifically in 40" market. They expect to sell somewhere from 25 to 30 million units this year in compare with 15 million of 2005.
The prices for 40" LCD are at about $3000 and do not very much differ from that of plasma screens. My only question is why LCD and not plasma. Is it the burn-in factor or power consumption. Does Joe the consumer even know about those factors. Maybe the burn-in and half-life but not the power consumption. So what it is?
