There is no packet loss equivalent with digital cables. Interference is theoretically possible, but rarely (if ever) a real issue. The primary issue is signal strength. The longer the cable, the lower the signal strength at the receiving device (TV). If the strength is too low it can not be properly utilized. This means no picture or an intermittent picture but never a degraded picture.]]>Dec 8th 2009 7:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/08/wireworlds-platinum-starlight-hdmi-cable-is-only-1-000-better/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/08/wireworlds-platinum-starlight-hdmi-cable-is-only-1-000-better/
On a short (2 meter) run it usually doesn't matter. On longer lengths it can. Here is an article from Gizmodo a few years back that actually tested cables.
