[QUOTE=Sling;817592]Safe bet for the first 300 hours
1)Stay away from break-in disk

So, is a break-in disk just not necessary, and only useful if you can't wait a few hundred hours of normal TV watching? Can it actually harm the plasma? I find this interesting since they are so high on the break-in disk @ AVS.

BDisk can be harmful to new phosphors leaving TV on for long periods of time.

There are more then a few users of BDisk that have found burnt pixels during running disk for long periods of time and had DVD player freeze up during BDisk marathon finding out that DVD player menu had been displayed while sleeping or at work...NOT GOOD

Like I said its a 50 /50 split .there are more then a few AVS plasma TV vets that don't believe in BDisk.
If BDisk are such a good thing Samsung , Pio and panny would have thrown one in the box your TV came in.
when it comes to the popularity of BDisk over at AVS hmm AVS loved HD DVD lol.

Breakin disk are a gamble.
