Definitely Component. It's the type of connection used in all broadcast machines.

oh sorry i said component video when i meant composite video, does that change things?
In that case, I would reckon there may well not be a lot in it. A scart lead essentially delivers composite video. So S-Video is probably your best bet, although I've never actually used s-video myself. But you would have to have an absolutley amazing TV to really notice the difference between all three. I would go for Scart...for easiness sake
S-Video would be better than scart and just as easy......Do you have a plasma TV....If so the scart should be your last resort.
