As someone that has designed with Ethernet and USB (at hardware and software levels), USB and Ethernet are VERY different (A canal and a railroad share a lot of characteristics, but, oh god, the differences!). The USB model is very much a host/device type network, point-point, and Ethernet is a peer-peer setup, usually physically point-point, but logically point-point or point-multipoint. USB is packetized, but looks like Ethernet to analyzers like Wireshark more for the convenience of Wireshark developers and users (why develop different filter mechanisms?). I DEFINITELY prefer using wireshark over the dedicated analyzers.
