That question is pretty simple to answer. Not everyone can have a big sound system. Having a big screen won't bother anyone thats not watching it. Having a loud surround sound system can. Most people put TVs in a living room, not a home theater room. A surround sound system means expensive installation, or wires every where. A big flat panel can just hang on the wall. And just ask yourself would you rather be deaf or blind? I know which one I would choose.
