Traffic is more 'valuable', and hence more 'important', because it is harder and usually more expensive to obtain than content. We easily invest 10 times more, in terms of time, effort and money, in traffic than we do in content.
"Expense" is irrelavant. Which would you rather be... the guy that invented velcro or the guy that does the marketing for it.

Personally, I'd rather be the guy with the goods.

I realize we all have different views on this, and for different reasons, which may or may not be biased... but I stick with Product over Traffic because of the reasons I've already stated.
