Assignment Software Anti-Competitive Practice

Looking for a few ideas....

As many of you know, I'm the owner/developer of RefTown.com, I just tried to get exhibition space at the NASO 2009 Summit in late July in order to make ourselves known....a lot of people just haven't heard of us.

The NASO representative that responded to our application basically informed me that Arbiter has paid and contracted with NASO to not allow any competitors of Arbiter to have exhibits at the NASO convention.

It is one thing to compete on merits of the product but to prevent the competition from advertising or having a presense at industry conventions by force is pretty sad. I'd bet it even borders on illegal.

Sort of says someting about their company and product too.

Any ideas?
