Will Thunderbolt replace all as premium connector?

A query for all Transport/DAC manufacturers views, if the new connector - Thunderbolt will be the way of the future for at least server to dac connections? Will this be something they will be thinking off for the future?

USB may be good enough at the moment for present bandwidth required, but would having more secure connections be out done such as AES/EBU, by this newer connection?

Or will this connector be a similar to the debate such as Solid State hard drives are or are not better than present hard disc drives in sonic value.

Thanks
