Erik,
The real cost of a domain-name-year is sub-dollar, (...)
While this is certainly true for those established gTLDs with a certain number of registrations, it certainly should be reconsidered for smaller gTLDs, where the overhead per domain name is much larger. For most new gTLD, the initial investment for the application also has to be factored into the real cost of a domain name. Considering many new gTLDs are expected to be no larger than 30-50k domain names, the real cost per domain is well above a dollar.
