There is definitely a difference in HDMI cable quality between brands. Not only is the conductor/insulator different, but the connector too. I find it extremely irritating that the cheapo cables seem to have been assembled by a monkey, poor crimps that fail right out of the box.

When you buy a $10 HDMI cable, it has about a 50% defect rate brand-new. Of the half that work, probably 80% of those will fail after you've inserted and removed them from their mating connector once or twice. I don't think you need to pay fifty or a hundred bucks for an HDMI cable, but do be careful of the bargain brands.
