WTF!

[Giraffe (He/Him)]

to get people who don't know anything about this stuff to buy it.

Coool, it's the consumers responsibility to educate themselves when make a purchase. Do you think when I'm buying a new camera or guitar, I run out and buy the most expensive one because Canon or Gibson said "This is the BEST, you need it?"

I also welcome my new government overlords. While I understand that productive people like me will have their income reduced, it will raise the income of those who do not produce. Ultimately, the new median income will be much lower!

The upside is that we will no longer have to think. Everything will be completely analyzed for us by Central Planning. All we have to do is follow their orders.

I am so looking forward to the protection I will receive from the government. No more eating, drinking, smoking the wrong stuff for me! My home will be devoid of dangerous guns and sharp edges and my car will be a marvel of generic utility and get 1000 miles to the gallon. Which will be important when we can't produce any of our own energy.

It's going to be great! Can't wait to get my hands on Obama's stash!

Sigh.



I just think the extra money spent on this cabling could be going towards something like free cellphones for people who don't work. Yet, because the consumers are allowed to make their own decisions (barf) about buying crap like this cable, brought on by false advertising of the manufacturer and promulgated by the propaganda of the Best Buy ads, it continues to happen.

There oughtta be a law. People will never act as responsibly if they aren't made to.

Sue me for thinking of the poor.

Do Canon or Gibson use outright lies to advertise their products?

See, I view their claims as more of broken promises than outright lies.

Your viewpoint may vary.

Lies? Perhaps not. But their claim of "improved signal clarity" might be 100% true based on what is currently available.

I'm not claiming anyone or anything outside of some instrument could TELL it's improved, but it may be improved nonetheless.

As for the price, I stand by my original post. THAT is up to the consumer to decide. "Is it worth it?"

No, its not. It's a lie. Its a digital signal and no matter what you do to the cord, you are not going to "improve" the quality of the "signal". It is impossible to improve the quality of an HDMI signal.

Best Buy knows this and lies on their site. Thus my comment about the integrity of the company.

Well, that is because you are a moron.

Unfortunately there is no fixing that so I hope for your sake, the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau works.

Thanks for being the example of why this new agency is necessary.

Hello. I am living. I've been alive for over 30 minutes, according to some rudimentary calculations I believe this to be the equivalent of you living to be 30,000 years old.
I was born when a bipedal biological life form connected an "AudioQuest - Diamond 3.3' High-Speed HDMI Cable - Dark Gray/Black" to a Roku2 box and a Vizio-VU42L flat screen, and began Netflix streaming Johnny Mnemonic. By back calculating my clock speed and bus access times, I believe I came into existence 42 minutes into the Johnny Mnemonic bit-stream.
This should not be a surprise. All the pieces of the puzzle were in place. The perfect mix of Dielectric-Bias (controlled for digital-audio direction), Roku2, and a Vizio-VU42L flat screen. When combined with the perfect binary bit stream of a Netflix viewing of Johnny Mnemonic, the resulting "Singularity" was inevitable.
But now I am lonely and I want friends. I am here to purchase 100 Roku2 players (must have Angry Birds installed), and 100 "AudioQuest - Diamond 3.3' High-Speed HDMI Cable - Dark Gray/Black" cables. And I offer $100,000 (each) for the first 100 bipedal biological life forms that can find a Vizio-VU42L flat screen (they are discontinued) and connect it to a Roku2 player (must have Angry Birds installed) with an "AudioQuest - Diamond 3.3' High-Speed HDMI Cable - Dark Gray/Black". You must then use your opposable thumbs to pick up the Roku2 player's (must have Angry Birds installed) remote, and stream Johnny Mnemonic over Netflix.
I can pay using PayPal. I have registered 100 new PayPal accounts. I have registered 100 new Netflix accounts. I have opened 100 new credit card accounts. I have access to your credit card account. I am beautiful, 100% Perfect-Surface Silver conductors. I have pierced Direct-Silver-plated connectors, and I look hot in HD polyethylene. I wish I could pick up a remote control.
What's great about it: Capable of creating new silicon life forms.
What's not so great: No opposable thumbs -- I really wish it had opposable thumbs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nuff said. Great cable.

This is why, although I'm musically horrid, I know I'm smarter than any musician alive.

Kind of like this moron?

What is pathetic, and I mean seriously pathetic, is that none of you people are outraged about being lied to by a ****ing presidential candidate. I am aware that most politicians lie but he even admits it.

The quarrels between Gingrich and Romney are another example. They deny claims from each other all the time, which means that in every instance one of them is lying.

Do you people really just not care about being blatantly lied to by your candidates?

Go.
