Thats because firewire even though theoretically is slower than USB 2.0 still transfers faster. Firewire is 400mbps and USB 2.0 is 480mbps but
FireWire, built from the ground up for speed, uses a "Peer-to-Peer" architecture in which the peripherals are intelligent and can negotiate bus conflicts to determine which device can best control a data transfer
*
USB 2.0 uses a "Master-Slave" architecture in which the computer handles all arbitration functions and dictates data flow to, from and between the attached peripherals (adding additional system overhead and resulting in slower, less-efficient data flow control)

I use both, but there have been three too many times that I forget to put my card back into the camera. So now I just use the cable to I can never have a cardless camera.

I got an internal card reader on my desktop. But, it stopped working once I "upgraded" to Windows 7. Never got a round to finding a driver. So, I just transfer directly from the camera.
