I never got much out of the AVN shows themselves. They seemed to be an excuse for everyone to gather in one place. And of course, it was meeting old friends and making news ones and business contacts that made the show. But the shows themselves: registration is disorganization and hard to find, signage is unclear, it's a 40,000 mile hike from your room to the show, the seminars are the same year after year, the show floor is abyssmally boring. And August's show is at a Westin Diplomat Hotel (This is a smoke-free hotel. Breathe Westin(TM)) how is that going to go over with the porn crowd? And of course there are the rumours that there's not even going to be a show in Vegas in January.

So, what do you think AVN needs to do to woo us back to their events?
