[QUOTE="Vercer, post: 123978, member: 1332"] LED refers simply to the backlight, not the underlying technology used to display the picture itself. Mostly it's used to even out the picture of an LCD since traditionally the backlights on those were placed solely at the top and bottom of the display leaving a dimmer area as you moved to the middle of the screen. This was only an issue on the larger TV's and really only noticeable in a completely dark environment. Are LED's backlights worth the money comes down again to where it's being used. In a pitch black "media room" type environment I'd say absolutely. In a typical family room? Probably not. [/QUOTE]
