The new iPod does not use FireWire (except I believe it can charge from
FireWire). FireWire fans of course may be sad to see the change, but
it's difficult to argue that FireWire would making a difference for the
majority of iPod customers today - aside from adding cost and weight.
Was the professional audio world and TV / Movie industry using iPod's
FireWire port in some way?

It seems that almost the entire professional audio world and the
professional TV / Movie industry is embracing FireWire ... and Apple
is cutting FireWire out of the flagship iPod line?
