LCD's are better tech overall, tend to be less bright, can be darker
depending on angle of viewing, don't have any burn-in problems, are more
expensive and not available in as large a size as plasmas.

If your number one concern is burn in, you probably want a CRT or LCD (both
plasma and projection screen have burn-in concerns).  If you want a larger
screen RIGHT NOW, or the LCDs don't look as good to you (which they don't to
me, but maybe I just haven't seen the right LCD model) you might put up with
the possibility of burn-in later down the line for a getting what you want
at the size you want right now.
