Nothing new there. AiR ethernet is better than USB using plain, 'unoptimized' off the shelf computer hardware. One can "easily" surpass AIR though using USB.
It might be a world unknown to many but there's many effective hard- and software products available to optimize both PC's or Mac's (more options for the PC platform) with which one can match and surpass the results of an off the shelf commercial solution like Aurender. Don't forget that these devices are also computers, there's no magic inside them, they're often slimmed down regular hardware coming from the same system architecture as PC's although nowadays you see many manufacturers are designing their own motherboards and of course power supplies. They're still following the same system architecture design though.
