Ah, but with HDMI Video and Sound I get one cable into my Plasma and I can then pipe the sound out from the plasma to my Surround Amp via S/PDIF
Why would I want to do that? Because then all the other inputs into my TV - Blueray, Games console etc can easily share the amp.

Better, 8-channel (7.1) uncompressed PCM output via DisplayPort. (Sure,
it could be done with modern HDMI, but with DisplayPort, you avoid many
of the nasty HDMI patent issues--not that they have an effect on the
user (other than cost), but still...)
