How do most of you clean your HDTV screen? I don't want to spend $20 on a Monster cleaning solution at best buy if I don't have to.

In certain situations, If your TV is in a room thats proned to collecting lots of dust, All you need is that soft cloth to wipe the screen of the dust and your set.
Spraying water on a dust filled screen will just make the cleaning more difficult, The dust will spread around the screen, And on top of that you might see some streaks all over the screen, So you have to be wiping the entire screen until the streaks are gone.
I would recommend you remove all the dust first before spraying water on your screen.

Spraying any liquid on any type of screen is a bad idea. If it gets to the edges of the frame, it can leach inside and damage components.
If you need to use any liquid (in this case, plain water is the safest), dampen the cloth, not the screen. Wring out any excess liquid before you apply it to the screen so it doesn't drip.
Never use paper towels, either. They're made of wood fiber and will scratch your screen.
