Wrong. Saves time. Gets rid of silly names and allows small businesses to have good tlds. Like Manhattan.bike, which a friend of mine bought for his bike store.

Or instead of searching for pages - samsung.support?
Also people remember things like searchenigne.travel better than some jumbled made up word. Once one brand shows it is easy to market I think we will see adoption.
Margins are high and users love the apparel.
example: Tshirt with Slogan. We take care of logistics, sales, design and returns.
That being said you think half of the registries will go Bankrupt? Allow me to take you through some Math..although I think this qualifies as arithmetic not math.
The bad TLD that was mentioned in this post was .PRO, .pro has 156K domains registered that not many compared to .com's 111 hundred million but
Registry charge between 12-20 dollars per a domain. Let's use 12.
Let's say this registry own only 1 TLD ( most own a few, donuts owns ~200)
Tlds - 1 Domains per a tld - 156K Revenue per a domain - $12 = 1.872M Marketing Expense - 10% of sales = 200K Margin after operating expenses ( check out comps) lowest possible if you ask around is about 25%. = $374K
Thats assuming things really do not work out and they only have 1 GTLD. Once you have scale margin goes all the way to 60% which would make earnings 1m and if you sold the domains for $20 earnings would be 1.56M.
- all earnings are pre tax.
We will see but I would be shocked if half go under.
