Query: 5 star price 1 star performance.

From reading the 1 star reviews I guess I made out pretty well. I got 11 months of flawless performance out of this cable. Then my TV began fading to black. If I turned up the volume and the picture would come back for about a minute then fade to black. Not a fun problem during football season. By the process of elimination I determined it was the $6 HDMI cable. I am really tempted to buy a second one because I'm so cheap I try squeezing sh!t out of a buffalo nickel, however I think I will spend the extra $10 this time to get a quality cable. You just don't want to take chances when you are 1/3 thru football season with college basketball on the horizon...
