I keep wanting to pull the trigger on an OLED, but the risk for screen burin-in seems too high.
I'm not sure it's worth it to spend the life if a TV constantly thinking about what's on the screen and whether it will ruin it.

Don't sweat that. I bought mine Presidents Day last year and paid $1900 for a 55" and i play everything on it - TV is still just like brand new. Awesome TV! Well worth the $$$$$$

Yeah, the screen burn-in issues on OLED are a little overblown IMHO. They're certainly not plasma screens.

Not OLED, but any thoughts on this model? Micro Center has them in store for $799.

I still have my plasma and I leave the screen on one thing for a long time sometimes and it has never burned in an image.

I was just reading about this and the protections that OLEDs have against burn-in are pretty impressive. Newer versions have "logo luminance adjustment" that detects logos like ESPN/Disney/etc and after a couple of minutes dim those pixels. A pixel refresher runs on the TV any time it's turned off after running for 4 hours, and a bigger refresh can be manually run periodically to even the wear on pixels.

I saw this special too, if it weren't for the fact I bought a 4K Samsung HDR a year and a half ago I'd be blowing my tax wad on this.
