    Hello Marlene,
    Your package looks to be a decent deal but you haven't said exactly what components you are trying to connect. Are you just attaching a DVD player and cable box to the HDTV? What kind on inputs/outputs do you have on each device?
    These are digital cables so there is no need to spend tons of money on "snake-oil" improvements.
    If we were talking about analog interconnects then you can start to spend some money and see improvement in picture and sound quality.
    The only area i can think of within the digital realm where it pays to buy the more expensive cable is in the case of a very long HDMI run, the kind that you would have between a front projector and an equipment closet in a large home theater. In that case you would be concerned about the length of the cable run causing problems with the signal, so you might have an argument for spending 300 or so dollars on a cable. From what I can tell this does not describe your situation so it looks like you will be fine.

    Good Luck
