Basically it all comes down to electricity.
Copper's the best conductor and so all cable that transmits electricity is made from de-oxidised copper. Power cord, speaker cable, USB cables, HDMI cables, EVERYTHING.

The only things that make any kind of difference is how well the plugs are made and how thick the cable is. This is purely for bandwidth.

You can get decent build quality for about 20 quid. Anything else is purely don to companies playing us for mugs.

Like Al said above, check out their HDMI interconnects
if they're anything other than the standard ones that came with the telly, or whatever, then they're wasting money and receiving no benefit. The defining feature of digital is that it's on or it's off. It works, or it doesn't. There is zero benefit in spending money on HDMI cables.
