I agree. It's what your intentions are when you go. I attend a lot of mainstream ones as well and they can be useful or not useful based on your objectives. If you go looking to strictly do business, don't get caught up in the party scene, and play the game right, a show can put you in touch with great people.

But it's also not for everyone. There are a lot of guys who have made millions and never been to an adult show (as well as vice versa). I think those who think they are useless are basing it on the fact that they see a lot of people going who really don't need to go and just want to party.
