Just for a bit of historical perspective, the AES/EBU spec was designed so that digital audio could be handled in a studio environment just as if it was analogue. So not just mic cables, but patch panels and permanent wiring could all cary the 'new' digital audio. This really mattered if you were a legacy broadcaster and had a significant investment in studio infrastructure. As has been pointed out elsewhere, the AES/EBU spec is not 'better' than S/PDIF, it was designed for a different purpose.
