Most of these average joes who buy the PS3 as a BR player dont usually shop online and even if they do, most are wary of sites like Monoprice.com, J6P just accept's the fact that HDMI cables are expensive.

But what this guy doesnt tell you, is that only 2 of the 3 xbox 360s come with Component, and only 1 of the 3 comes with HDMI.. And his argument is moot anyways, if someone is buying the PS3 as a BR player then they obviously have no interest in gaming and the 360 would not even be on their radar.
I was one of those blind that bought cables at retail stores! I even thought I was crafty when I started to buy RG6/Cat5e bare and crimp it myself. Or use old Composite (YELLOW/RED/WHITE) cables as component (works just fine) or Digital Coaxial.

Then i found the light, the Monoprice light! Hehe.
