I don't think Marco is too arrogant, just highly opinionated (like the way he doesn't want to support Android - he just isn't interested in that environment, and really like Apple), but I wish they'd talk more about Building and Analyzing and less about coffee or Macs. I was hoping he'd talk more about programming and software development. When he starts to overlap with Siracusa and Gruber I start to tune out. Especially Gruber, when they both talk about Apple stuff. Siracusa isn't too Apple centric on Hypercritical and has some good episodes on more general programming topics and things like Perl, so he doesn't overlap with Marco too often.

- dasil003 15y agoAgreed. The bottom line is I'm not really interested in Marco's opinion on tech products. He may be no more biased than Gruber, but he's rarely as insightful from a consumer perspective. I don't need to hear the umpteenth rant about how inferior Amazon's tablet will be, or how you can't make money in the Android Market. I love my Apple stuff, I just can't get anything out of that kind of cheerleading. On the other hand, when he talks about actually building stuff or even tangential stuff like the App Store review process, that's where he distinguishes himself and can hold his own against Siracusa and Gruber who are stronger pundits.
