You are correct that there are problems with using USB as a means of transmitting digital audio data. There are also problems (but different ones) with using SPDIF wired or optical, ethernet, Wifi. The fact of the matter is that computers were not intended for audio & hence not optimal as far as high quality audio use is concerned. However, as the issues are being uncovered & solved the quality of audio is vastly improving & will continue to do so until it is accepted that there are more considerations than just the delivery of the bits for quality audio.
