The 30-pin WOULD pass digital audio, but the device it connected to (e.g., Wadia's iPod dock, now discontinued) required the manufacturer to buy a license from Apple. Few manufacturers paid up, so the signal most people get from the 30-pin connector had been converted by the iPhone's DAC to analog.
