I don't think there is much demand for USB only TBH. though it is useful.
I'd like to see more kit with a built in dac in the same way that we used to take for granted the built in phono stage.
No reason why integrated amps or pre amps cannot have the dac on a plug-in card.
Won't be everyone's cup of tea, particularly those preferring the minimalist amplifier route but many would welcome 'digital' as just another input on the amp.
Think of something like the excellent MF V-Dac. That little plain box contains the entire dac on a small 4"x3" pcb. Stick an edge connector onto it and make it a card.
Simples!
