The conversations are better as you're only talking with interested and engaged folks.On the flip side, it can be a cash grab, if the sponsor is lazy or the meetup has not gained traction in the local market.

So stay engaged and ask all kinds of questions as well as take a look at the blogs and the pod cast.
