Message:
You are so right. I share your worries and even registered a domain in connection with these worries (see link below). However, I've come to the conclusion that there must be some sort of fair chance for all to get a good name in .biz (or whatever is approved). If they will be grabbed by some big domainname collectors to a large extent, the new gTLD will probably fail. Why? For the very same reason that there are so few three-letter dot com domains that are actually used. They are for sale. If the same happens to, say, .biz, it will fail. Few sites will mean little acception of the gTLD. If this happens, some people will loose money from stupid speculation. Some new registrars will make money. Let them.
