I'll grant you that if you have a long cable it will need to be shielded to prevent too much loss, but unlike an analogue signal spending a lot of extra money to get a slightly better cable will not be worth it.

There is no error correction in HDMI:

Second, it is a flawed assumption to suppose that digital signal handling is always error-free. DVI and HDMI signals aren't subject to error correction; once information is lost, it's lost for good. That is not a consideration with well-made cable over short distances, but can easily become a factor at distance.
