This is simultaneously good for a laugh and a cry. At 1.5 meters I think you could use a coat hanger and still get perfect ethernet :
1.5 Meters of ethernet cable = $500 (!!!)

I'm sure Monster believes they have a patent on this and will surely file a lawsuit against Denon. There's only room for one blood-sucking, money-grubbing, lying, deceiving cable manufacturer in this country, dammit! In fact, I hear Monster has applied for a trademark of that very phrase. ;D

Now that is fresh. I imagine the electrons need an arrow so they know which way to go. Boy are they gonna get spoiled. They probably won't want to use "non-directional" cables ever again. :-X

You can get a full 7.1 ch Denon receiver for $499. Decently spec'd.

Wonder what people will say when the plastic release lever breaks. Oh wait, it's a DENON cable, so I'm sure they're using much higher-grade plastic than we're used to seeing on our computers. These probably have at least double the usual MTBF for that lever...
