Don't use a break-in disk at all.Break in your screen following #4
4)Use your cable/satellite feed . If you have HD channels tune into them as much as possible staying away from top / side bars.

Almost all the HD channels have logos on them now. Isn't that not a good idea either?

When breaking mine in
"HDNET Movies" DTV channel 78 , "HDNET" DTV channel 79 and Discovery HD worked outstanding.
There are more then a few SD channels that fit the bill as well.

Notice in link I said 100HR....during/after 100 hr of viewing I still got minor screen retention and went with 300 hr break-in finding it to take longer but worth the wait

Break in the TV how? As far as I know you don't have to worry about burn in anymore.

Plasma break-in procedures belong in the same bin as $1k/foot speaker cables, they're equally useful.
