The new format and the old one cover roughly the same usecases. To the best of my knowledge, the only use-case not (yet) supported by systemd-cryptsetup, is mounting a removable device and reading the key from a file on that device. For this, stick with the old syntax (though be careful, it is inherently racy).

Do you know what's about reading a key raw from a USB stick by dd? In the link you posted nothing is mentioned about cryptsetup. Heiko
