     @takao It's not really comparable, as HDMI is digital, while composite video+audio is analog.
     
     Composite video quality really sucks tbh, while component video is somewhat acceptable.
     
     For me it's DVI + whatever audio signal that goes over the tip ring sleeve 3.5mm connector.

     @Suiseiseki HDMI is deeply unethical as it is not an open standard, is patent-encumbered and can be a vessel to anti-freedom restrictions. Anything else is irrelevant.

     @takao I mean, a HDMI-compatible port that just carries a DVI signal isn't unethical and isn't encumbered by patents and uses the same cable - but may as well just use the DVI port.
