I don't knock them for trying to extract every possible dollar, but I'd rather they put more back into the show (never happen though). :-/

LOL... What on earth do you think they're doing with their money if they're not putting it back into the show?! - Stashing it away somewhere just for fun?
The reason you'd hold a convention anywhere in off-season is because that makes the room rates affordable for attendees. On top of that, Internext used the leverage of taking over the entire hotel to negotiate even lower rates than would otherwise be the case.
