I hardly think that being a programmer automatically
makes one able to provide non-zero "content."  
programmers have been involved in video games and
cdroms, and i don't think that the latter are so filled
with "content."  it seems that what motivates your 
statement is an elitism threatened
by the fact that so many people have a chance to voice
something in a field where before they were merely only
"users" on the receiving end of things.

by the way, i am a programmer.
