Wow, I didn't know there were sites that could even crush Jsoup :o But ya, either way, I don't think a true app would be possible unless MacInsiders received a major backend overhaul to include a proper REST API. As far as I know, it's running on a pretty dated PHP forum software package that probably hasn't been updated in years.
EDIT: Hmm, it appears to be running on vBulletin, which does have a REST API in its newer iterations. Maybe there's hope after all... ?
