Subject: Some .Com holders want the continued Monopoly

Message: 		 

 
        Every day as I read, It is painfully obvious to me that those who cry out to have .web registrations wiped out and those who proclaim we don't need new TLD's are a bunch of .com holders who have more inventory than they bargained for and they are afraid that the addition of new TLD's might devalue their holdings, if this is not the case the only alternative is a .com/.net holder who has a business using a generic word who is afraid of the impending competition.

ICANN listen up this should not even be an issue, We are tired of waiting around while by virtue of your policies and red tape you have thus far propped up the current monopoly by virtue of a manipulated scarcity in Domain Space. Hasn't network solutions ate enough? now is the time to allow the market forces to speak.
Think about this, take just one product and/or one product segment and throw that in .com .net or .org and that is what you have to serve the world, so basically three people and/or three organizations get a storefront to the "WORLD". Anyone here that says we don't need more TLD's are just plain greedy with an agenda. At least  those with .web registrations have the courage to tell everyone that they do and what their agenda is.
  
NO MORE REDTAPE!!!!!! You put through hundreds of ccTld"s with no problem, so stop making this a "Federal Case" by dragging this out for many more months like the past few years. Who are you protecting??????
