OP, “For streaming you have packet loss, latency, bandwidth etc. which effect the signal prior to reception..”

Spec-chart for digital cables
Don’t want to start a flame war but looking for a comparison chart for the specs on digital cables.
I have read multiple articles, digital coaxial vs optical vs HDMI vs USB, I would like a comparison chart showing bandwidth, through put etc.

Also, would entertain a discussion of opinion of users, what experiences have users found?
Lastly, I understand the conversation might want to direct to the material of construction, but I would like to stick to the direct fact of the cable

We've all read this, over and over... And you know what, I was the same. I saw this today and it really changed my opinion.
