More than likely your "back light" is going out. This is unfortunate, as it can be fairly expensive to replace. The backlight is just that, on an lcd set, the backlight is a large array of very small lights that illuminate the lcd screen from "behind". Hence the name. A good way to tell if its dying, is to check the contrast setting on the tv. If you can set it near the max, and it's still pretty dim, your backlight is definitely going out on ya.

Which is better, an LCD TV or a plasma TV?

LCD TV picture quality today is a big improvement over the past, with option like LED backlighting for even greater depth and contrast. Price is the main advantage of LCD over plasma, offering a comparable picture at a mere fraction of the cost. Plasma is still expensive so you should also figure in the cost of a warranty, while with prices starting in the low hundreds, an LCD TV is an affordable purchase. LCD's are generally cheaper, but plasmas have better picture quality. Plasmas used to wear out and the colors got messed up after a couple years, but in newer ones that is no longer the case, so I would suggest plasma.
