A fairly good (simplified) explanation about USB cables
How USB works
USB data are in packets. This means all the 1s and 0s are packaged together as a single message. The same as your internet connection
If you use water as an analogy, USB data does not pass through the wire like a pipe. It is more like this water is packaged in a bottle (the packets) and then these bottles passed down the line.
So if you take this bottled water home in a Mercedes and it tasted better then water carried in a Fiat, then a boutique USB cable might be for you?
.... flames awaited..!
