The biggest game convention in the US in trouble? Not good. Hopefully they can reorg and be solvent again.

You could also attend multiple cons in a weekend. Telepresence would be cool. The bandwidth costs for a good convention could be prohibitive, that could be ameliorated with making the panels downloadable streams rather than live streams, because then you could use Bit Torent or something like it. But then you'll have the problem of people skilled enough to run the computer equipment for each panel.
