Mister X, not an insulting attitude. No. Somewhat sarcastic I will admit to, but not insulting.
Don't forget that these shows spawn business at many levels.
For instance, I may meet someone very briefly during this show, and end up doing a follow-up upon my return home and strike up a good business relationship. All based on a chance meeting in the hallway, perhaps.
The parties may not have been put on by TPI, however the sponsors of those parties were given the opportunity to do so by TPI. No show, no parties. I would be curious to know if Daniel had attended many other adult internet tradeshows, or if he has attended any at all. The inter-personal networking that I witnessed (and participated in) during Cybernetexpo was no different than any AVN show I have ever attended. In fact, I got more of it done here in Montreal at a scaled down show than I do at the huge AVN shows.
