Seems like a lot of cheap stuff does not need to be fast, so USB2 is good enough. I would like to have seen something like those audio aux jacks with built in TOSLINK inline like the old MBPs had. Maybe a USB2 port with an optional optical channel somehow squeezed in would be really neat.
- topspin 6y agoThis $19.99 USB storage device [1] has a read speed over 3x maximum USB2. Next year it will be $10. The year after it will be $5. Or some such curve. Good luck telling people that can't have it because you say so. Optical stuff has a curve too, but until it can compete with a bit of stamped metal inside a molding on price, it will be too expensive for USB. The market simply will not allow it.
