also much easier,

How can it be any easier since they both work identically?

It depends on the camera. On mine, the USB port uses on of those mini
connectors, so I have to find the right cable first. And then, the
cover over the USB port on the camera seems fragile to me, so I have to
be especially careful with it.

So, it's quite a bit more convenient to just pop out the memory card,
and stick it into the card reader.
