$500 USB cable

Someone is trying to sell some fancy (used and 2 ft long) USB cable for $497.50. I am genuinely curious since I am no expert. What does this ultra expensive USB cable do to your audio system (besides transferring digital data)?

It does NOT matter weather they're 'completely uniform' Completely or partially uniform 0 will still be 0.

No need to guarantee either: Wire has nothing to do with right or wrong zeros or ones sent. DACs don't care if 'complete or incomplete zero or one' it received. DACs treat zero as ZERO and one as ONE. USB or any digital wire simply cancels out from both part of equation. That's where simple arithmetic kills all the science, hypothesis and beliefs behind. You can check answer with calculator LOL.
