Moore's law's got nothing to do with it - we're talking about the same
old spdif over the same old cable, not transitors on a chip.  As long
as we're discussing bandwidth-induced jitter, the only that can
possibly have changed is the material the fibers are made from, and the
reference above (from 2004) indicates nothing much has changed - the
(low-end) numbers match what Fourre says is typical.

Anyway, if you don't like that reference please go find a newer one and
enlighten us.
