It's not that you can't split component cables (or any other kind of cables), but at the split you're going to lose some signal. SD channels are more forgiving of this lose, but HD channels are less. It's typical for a two way split for you to lose about -3.5 of signal per split. It may or may not make a difference, depending on how many splits you have before the box.
He's not splitting the incoming signal... only the output- outputting to two tv's showing the same signal. Yes, some loss will occur, but I'm guessing neither of these sets will be used for primary viewing. I'm guessing he's setting something up like a small sportsbar- a tv in each front corner.

Just the usual stuff... Too much month after the money runs out. I have never been disciplined about this sort of thing... I'll be alright, though. Just need to be more careful.
