The blueish tone is traceback to the way how the white light is achieve. Some backlight uses a blue or green diode mixed with phosphor substance to get white coluring. Others, like high end screens, uses R-G-B diodes to get this, but those screen are normally much more expensive, like you said.

Plasma is another alternative, but don't think they do small plasmas anymore and even then some screen do suffer from phosphor trails. Besides that they aren't really suitable as a computer monitor, static image aso.

Since you already got a premium TV, maybe you should use that to view anime and get a decent monitor for your other work. You can get a small server, think HP are doing a cashback deal on their amd powered ones, to store your anime collection and that way you can share those between all your terminals, like notebook, pc, ps3, TV, tablet aso.
