LED spotlights (like the halogen spot lights with 20W and GU4 socket) already are available in similiar brightness and light colour like said halogen spots, I saw earlier this year in an electronic shops. But 30 bucks for one piece simply is too expensive. But i have good hopes for the future.

I run two energy savers in hidden lamps where their inferior light quality is not noticable, all other lamps here are 35% energy-reduced halogen lamps. Halogen is okay. Ordinary classic light bulbs I do not have in use since many years - long before the ban started in the EU. I use many dimmers, too.
