Plasma televisions do have a finite life. The phosphors that generate the image age as they are used. It is this feature that can cause "plasma burn", an effect that shows a permanent shadow of a static image that has been displayed for many hours on the screen.
Plasma burn is an exceptional event and if the display is used for normal domestic viewing, then it should last for many years. As it ages, the image brightness may reduce a little but this is rarely noticed. It is quite reasonable to expect a plasma screen to last for five to ten years with normal viewing.
Manufacturers rarely quote operating hours as there are many variables that affect the life of screens.
