AES S/PDIF sucks... Impedance mismatching rings a bell?
Async USB is Ok, but still inferior to I2S(which you can't run over more than 20-30cm).
So yeah, there is nothing new that's extremely good for digital audio signal transmission. The best for longer distances is still S/PDIF done right(75 BNC connectors or TOS done right).
