Other than that, well, it won't be worth having if I still have to watch a second rate picture with third rate sound 
Fingers crossed eh? |
I think component still transfers an analogue signal - albeit a higher quality than scart. So if you use component you would be converting digital source to analogue and then doing the opposite conversion at the other end to go into digital screen. If you wanted to keep it digital all the way you would have to consider DVI or HDMI cables.
