With regards to sharing of files: it's a natural progression for Apple. They are moving everything to iCloud. In Mavericks, for example, they disabled syncing of notes/calendar/address book through the cable with iTunes. It feels like this is just one step further.

Needless to say, I'm not very happy about no USB just as I wasn't happy about syncing.

They eventually released an update that re-enabled it, and it still works in Yosemite.

Hey thanks for this. I tested it out on Mavericks, and the only thing that doesn't sync anymore is the notes. Maybe I just can't find the setting in iTunes to sync that as well...
