Video Asylum

Did I make a BIG mistake. In the store, I saw the picture blur when the camera panned. For soem reason, when I saw the Panny again in Costco, and did not see those same artifacts (on an almost motionless video of Faith Hill singing) I bought the TV!!!

Last night, I watched a video of Sade, and everytime the background singers moved, their outlines blured, and ALMOST MELTED!!!!

Is that video compression found on DVD's?
Would that have happened on any TV? Or did I buy a an inferior TV?

I apolgoize in advance if this is kind of a dumb question

(DUI, why did you buy it, if you saw it had motion artifacts??!).

I have no good answer, other than I really wanted a new TV; advice would be greatly appreciated.
