Am I reading this correct - these so called 'hi end' scart leads are no
better than the cheaper stuff?
Admittedly the only real thing I tend to go on is the robustness of the
plug
/ toughness of the lead - I dont realy want one that falls apart when I
push
it in...

How generaly sweeping is this? Things like your phono leads / s-video
leads?
is this another 'sucker' marketing thing? Ive have seen 'hi fi / home ent '
mags etc that always rant on about how you should get better leads...

I agree with you on that - this could well be a 'custom' disk
