A well set up avid brake is better than some hydro brakes. They never need bleeding, or leak, and its easy to set up - you twiddle the red knobs either side of the pads, which can cure any kind of problem, whereas with a hydro that's automatic, so a bent disc is always going to be noisy.

Why do some of the pro's and good riders use cable disks? Surely not as powerful as hydro?

bb7 are more powerful then any hydraulic disk brake out. gives that instant stopping power that you need to do large rail gaps etc
