Not really much use unless you have some old media you want to  deal with.  Genlocks are so last century....

I don't get the issue with digitising, all video sources nowadays are digital, my video camera, my TV, movies I rent (and rip occasionally ...).  Where are the analogue sources?

What's so difficult about copying the video file out of your video camera and loading it in Final Cut?  Where in that process can a genlock be useful?
