So this is more of a general nonsense but still hardware question. I have beaten, thrown, and taken horrible care of laptop cables, ethernet, even BNC security camera cables, and never had them break or stop working.
HDMI cables are a different story though. i've bought probably 5 cables in the last year alone. From Vizio, to LG, to even a monster cable and they all seem to short or do that "twist it this way and then plug it in" to get it to work. Granted the monster cable was my lady's fault by stepping on it, but the other 4 simple quit working.
Are HDMI cables just super fragile? too complex to be in simple rubber housing? How about the rest of you? what's your HDMI cable experience?
