    It depends on what you want.
    If you're only going for stereo, DD or DTS, then it will make no difference, as David66 said. But, if you have a newer receiver that processes the HD audio formats, on the Blu ray movies, it must be with the HDMI.

    No.........
    With the newer receivers, you shouldn't see any video loss.
