Hi, I currently have a panasonic plasma tv and rogers terminal with both DVI and Component output. I was wondering which connection type is better.

If the DVI interconnection (which is fully digital) is used, then full digital quality is maintained right into the display. Component interconnection adds D/A's, A/D's and some filtering in the path, causing some small degradation in quality, visible on very critical material. The HDMI interface, now becoming available on some consumer equipment, is identical to DVI for the video side and adds the digital audio capability missing in DVI. HDCP coding is used in both DVI and HDMI connections to ensure security.

I'm DVI and component and I can't see the difference at all.
Apparently, the DVI or HDMI cables have the ability to block recording or rebroadcasting of protected materials but I've heard varying opinions on this.
Although HDMI carries the audio unless you have an HDMI compliant receiver it doesn't make a difference because you're not going to be listening to the audio through the TV. (Hopefully)
