I think it's pretty simple: OLED is clearly the best picture quality currently available, and is also pricey. Because of that, potential purchasers are excited about it, and going to be concerned about issues like burn-in, especially when it seems to be more sporadic than it was in the days of plasma. I've had plasmas for the last decade, and sold them for years before that, and it was pretty simple: mix up the content you're viewing, use a pixel orbiter/shifter if it was available, etc. and you'd be at low risk. The concern is that multiple people (in this thread) have gotten burn-in while being cognizant of the problem.
Nobody is saying that it shows up after 10 minutes, and nobody is "ignoring" those who have had no burn-in issues - I think everyone is glad to hear as many experiences as possible! Given that we're on a forum that focuses on content that is more likely to cause the problem, we're going to weigh the concerns a bit more heavily. I'm sure CNBC-ERA is doing the same. ;)
Personally? I stuck with plasma way after it was a dead-end, because I love the black levels. After years of worrying if this gaming session is going to be the one that burns something in, of seeing stuff like the Odyssey coin count or the Monday Night Combat HUD appear for days/weeks afterwards, I'm ok with giving up some picture quality. (As an aside, the review of the plasma that I currently have is still up on Rtings - it looks like the black levels of something like the X900E are actually lower than my old plasma.)
