Didn't know where to ask so I made my own thread

I have an HTPC I want to set up with a webcam so I can use it in the living room and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a webcam to use. I'm about 7 feet away from the tv and would either like to place the webcam on top or below the tv. My only concern is whether there will be audio feedback from the tv or if people will be able to hear from the couch.

I use a Logitech c920 for streaming, it has 1080p video and looks pretty fantastic for only being ~$65 on sale. Not sure about the audio as I use an external mic.
