Dear Sirs.

                        Our bookstore, Casa del Libro at Centro Comercial 
Grancasa. Avenida María Zambrano 35, strongly opposes any applications for 
a                       ?closed generic? gTLD, especially if submitted by 
commercial entities operating in a sector of activity related to the 
closed generic                          gTLD.
In the case of a closed generic gTLD .book, the exclusivity granted to the 
winning applicant would de facto strengthen the position of the biggest 
bidder to have sole use of the gTLD in the book industry and would 
therefore be anti-competitive, discourage innovation and new entrants and 
be detrimental to the industry as a whole.
We are therefore asking ICANN not to offer for sale a generic gTLD for 
.book and other similar words in general usage.
Yours faithfully

Raúl Blasco Santamaría
Director 
Casa del Libro 
Grancasa.
Avenida María Zambrano 35. Local 21
