To illustrate my point:

AVN ONLINE... the magazine and the site. The focus is on the web industry. They have been around for years and consistently improved.

Internext... the show is still the biggest webmaster draw attendance-wise and caters to the greatest variety of web entrepeneurs. Renee I know for a fact is highly concerned with making the shows affordable and profitable to attendees.

Competing shows and trade rags... they all take shots at AVN because it is undeniably the "400 lb gorilla" and they want to pluck the bananas from the same money tree. The ego factor is huge and every time someone feels slighted by AVN and/or Internext then they run off saying "well I am not going to come back and I will start my own show blah, blah, blah..."
Nice post. I don't agree 100% with your assessment of competing with Internext, but a good post nonetheless.
