What is the benefit of using a reciever that takes HDMI?
I see lots of discussion and concern about this.

But I not clear on the benefits a receiver provides that has HDMI?

Im my case my TV already has two HDMI inputs for DVD and DVR.
I would plan on sending coax or fiber digital to the receiver for audio. In
that case its still only a single cable to the reciever as it would be with
HDMI.

Any ideas on what the fuss is about?

thanks in advance.
