    As others have said, quality doesn't really drop off, don't worry about brand.

    Last time I ordered one it was like $4 so shipped, so I just went ahead and got five for an even $20. That was two years ago. Finished them off after Christmas this year. Swore I would never pay more than $5 for one ever again. I was duped at Best Buy. Think I paid $40 for one. :(

    This.

    There is absolutely no need to buy a high-priced cable. Don't fall for the "gold-plateds" or whatever.

    The $4 HDMI cables work just fine.

    Monoprice.com or Fry's Electronics (in store). I bought a 50' HDMI cable from Fry's for about $13.

    Exactly, no difference in cables at all - just go cheap.
