Shouldn't we find the best straight signalpath from the bits to the soudwaves as modular as it can be? The industry should be very happy since there would be more boxes to sell and so forth...

The more I read about this is related to that this already has that and that one is incompatible because the first one aleready has this. Let's first set a common modular signal path and the argue what is best in every position down to coupling caps or not.

Unfortunately I don't know, but my guess is that J22 not I2S. If it were I2S then this device would be a bargain.
Why do you say that? I2S should be one of the least expensive features to implement. Granted, the current market prices I2S devices at a premium, but that is purely due to supply and demand, not cost of the technology. If millions of people actually wanted to buy an I2S output device instead of an HDMI output device, then I2S would be dirt cheap.

If there's something I'm missing that makes I2S expensive to implement at any quantity, then please enlighten.
 
If you are interested in I2S then this card have I2S output besides SPDIF... In fact there are two I2S outputs: isolated and non-isolated having the same price and high quality parts + a beautiful layout. See for yourself on how it looks.
cheers

I was saying that in relation with the prices of other devices that have I2S output.
