Theres not a difference at all, just a name brand.
"Expensive cables aren't worth it
You should never pay more than $10 for a standard six-foot HDMI cable. And despite what salesmen and manufacturers might tell you, there's no meaningful difference between the $10 cable and the $50 cable. Unless you see something obvious, such as dropouts or a flashing screen, the digital information transmitted by both cables is exactly the same--no cable can make the picture any better or any worse."
There is no major difference. The companies are different, so thats what the difference is. For example. a normal ps2 controller made by a different company would've been $15 like 3 years ago, while a sony ps2 controller would have been $30. just because it was made by sony. same goes for this, Make sure those hdmi cables that are 50 dont come with usb ports, When I went to buy my ps3, I saw these HDMI cables that were $50 and came with usb devices, while normal ones were only $10. so yea, that could be the difference. other than that, if you cant see the difference visually, that means they are the same.
There isn't any difference, a cheap one is just as good as an expensive one, the expensive ones are a huge con, I've seen them for nearly £200, lol.
Just so long as its physically well made, not shoddy, it will be fine. I've yet to see a cheap one that isn't good enough, if you want to be sure that it's well made, then go for a brand name one, I got an Hitarchi one for about £10, but I think even the cheapest ones are good:)
Edit: The same cannot be said for controllers, official Sony ones are by far the best, most of the rest are just cheap knock-offs:)

One of those deals screws you over - you may guess which one.
