I think it just adds just more clutter to the mess...these seem clean. @BecFG check out their website it seems to me like they are fully customizable and interchangeable!

Works great. I've had some tape stuck on my cables for several years, and they never came off. I guess you have to use good quality tape. I do this in 2 different ways :

Why do you want to pretty up your rat's nest? I use a label maker and attach the labels to the cords and cables at work. I didn't see any labels for xbox or ps3 on their website. I could do the same with bottle caps, a sharpie and zip ties. Overkill. Why do you want to pretty up your rat’s nest? I use a label maker and attach the labels to the cords and cables at work.
