Reddit.com is not what anyone would consider a 'valuable' domain in any way. It's pretty much random. There wouldn't really isn't any good reason to not use a .com if you are going for a madeup and pretty much random domain name (all down side).

PG's point (and I don't agree with everything he says or thinks but he is correct here) is that any serious company uses a .com domain. Of course so do failure and non serious companies.

Good .com domains were expensive in the 90's. And to my reply to the other comment 'expensive' does not frame anything relating to the value for the particular purpose.
