I agree to an extent. I've heard a lot of VC's that I really enjoyed, I love hearing their opinions on which sectors are heating up and where the future of technology as a business lies. That said, VC speakers, especially on panels, seem to devolve into a discussion of the VC industry. Whether it's "frothy", deal term trends, etc, etc. The stuff that is relatively easy to look up but doesn't have a whole ton of bearing on a real business. ("Real" in the sense that you'd do it anyway regardless of how/when/if funding happens.)
