It was pretty marked down when I ordered it for the heck of it from
buy.com or something years ago. It was like 12ft plus a DA cable of the
same length for like $12 or something. So it was about $0.50 a foot
then. Maybe not that great, but whatever, until it died...
I've been ordering cables from CCT and have had a good experience every
time for many years now. I guess I'll need a replacement cable now.
