Why, out of curiosity? Is first-come-first-served really any better?

- bitJericho 10y agoYeah. One you pay a million bucks for a domain, it's around 10/year after that.
- stanmancan 10y agoAt least it's fair. Part of what makes the Internet amazing is the typical cliche that anyone can come out of nowhere to disrupt huge business. This seems like a slippery slope where you have to be able to pay to play.
- staticelf 10y agoI kind of disagree, since I am young I would never have the change to register a nice, generic domain name.
- stanmancan 10y agoI'm in my late 20's and I've never had that opportunity myself either; not with the original TLD's at least. However, with these new TLD's coming out, you do have that chance, as long as the pricing is fair. If .blog is announced and it's $10 per domain, you have the same chance anyone else does to snag "gaming.blog". However, if that domain is considered "premium" and costs $10,000 to register, well... that really limits potential buyers to those that have deep enough pockets to afford it.
- chinathrow 10y agoNo - which I didn't proclaim it is. But it seems somehow a bit fairer thant prime-pricing.
