It needs to be 20-30 ft long in order to reach and I refuse to pay Monster prices. Are there any budget places for these cables out there? I found more sites offering longer lengths of DVI cables but not HDMI. I thought HDMI did better over longer runs? Any advantage to using either type cable? I would rather use HDMI as I believe that will be the future standard. But I could always use adapters too. Thanks for the help.
    I'm not going to push you one way or the other here is a link explaining HDMI technology.
    It sounds like to me it would be best do go with HDMI but it is new technology.
