HDMI Cables provided Video AND Audio. It is also a Digital Cable, so it is more "secure" for protected content than say an Analog VGA Cable you would connect to a computer monitor.
As for HD component cables, I'm not sure which specific ones you are asking about. Are you talking about the three RCA cables they use for so-called Progressive-Scan inputs? Those are okay, but I'm not sure what the maximum resolution is on those. If you're talking about DVI cables, they (in my opinion) are of the same video quality of a VGA. The primary difference is the VGA is analog and the DVI is digital. So, again, the digital providing a path for content protection. DVI is pretty much like an HDMI without the digital audio. I don't know a better way to put it.

Really, the quality difference is going to depend on both the source and the display. Component signals are analog. HDMI signals are digital. All things being equal, I would go with the HDMI connection.

I think the only difference is that one is easier (HDMI) to install bacause it is just one connector. The other cables have three connectors.
I have been told that there is ABSOLUTELY no difference in quality YET. Someday down the road I am told that the broadcasts will change and the HDMI cable will be better quality.
