Apple tends to release new products only once a year. M4 released in October, that's probably when M5 will be released. Entirely speculation.

That's news to me, and doesn't make any sense. ASIO only exists as a way of bypassing Windows.

I'm looking forward to having my own real Weighted Companion Cube.

Exactly. Onboard sound chips are always going to shoot for the bottom shelf. Thankfully bottom shelf these days is pretty decent, but I don't think it'll ever be more than that since that requires more expensive supporting circuitry (op amps, capacitors, etc) rather than just a single chip.
