Hi i thanks a lot for the very interesting explanation.
Still i have the feeling that not only technical considerations are made when deciding for a standard.
I have read, as an example, that a good ethernet cable is better than an hdmi cable. But for AV hdmi is all around here.

I have also found some interesting comments in the link that i quote here

http://support.presonus.com/entries/21355765-Should-I-choose-a-FireWire-or-USB-audio-interface-

" •FireWire is typically dedicated for audio/video purposes, and wouldn't be in use by other services on your computer. Your system will most likely have a single controller for FireWire that shouldn't receive interference from other services or hardware on your system in a normal situation. Conversely, USB is used by a wide variety of hardware peripherals, resulting in an increase in the chance that a conflict could occur "

i like this very much indeed. A controller dedicated only to AV purposes. It sounds me quite right.
Thanks again.

Kind regards,
bg
