Good thread so far.

"HDMI is simply DVI with audio and a differently shaped plug"

I thought this also allowed for copy-protection as well? And now that Jay mentioned the digital RGB, I now recall reading that DVI is a bitch to copy from because of the sheer throughput of video, and I know that RGB is a buttload of information.

Okay, guys. Here's one: What's the difference between analog and digital component video, then? Apparently they can both use the Blue-Red-Green wires, and I've read home theater magazines where the reports have stated the analog-component video connections are labelled as digital-component video connections (which I believe is the YCrCb, and analog was YPrPB).

Am I missing something here?
