Why
Component A/V cable can be used to connect your iPod or iPhone to the HDTV. This allows you easily watch good quality videos or YouTube videos directly from your iPod. In addition, the cable bundle includes a USB connector that allows the iPod to charge while it’s being used. This cable allows you to take your movies with you to a friends house or on vacation. Just load movies to your iPod and take your cable along and you’re good to go. However, if you are planning to use the cable in various places, the RCA connections are quite tight and the slick and shiny connector housing doesn’t allow for much grip when trying to remove them. At the end of the day, this is the only official component A/V connector available for iPod and iPhone. It is worthwhile getting this cable as it turns your iPod as a movie player.

Pros
- Cable design is good looking and sleek
- USB charging cable included
- Good quality

Cons
- Some people are complaining that RCA plugs are too tight and unplugging is difficult. (This has not been too big issue for me)
- Little bit expensive
