As usual, a series of investors destroyed a great idea - and now web.com is nailing the final nail in it's coffin. Once a loyal customer, I am scouring Romania. I can be ripped off for less.

If one assumes that the "License to Print Money" for TLD Registries remains. If one assumes that .WEB is viewed as a "Premium TLD". If the new DNS (SCUBA) Software continues to gain market share, with WEB.COM used as the "Root of .WEB". One would expect .WEB to "make it" given the sheer size and financial power of the 2010 players. Comparing that to 1998 and the .WEB efforts is remarkably different. Could ICANN stop .WEB if they wanted to ? If one assumes the DNS market remains static with
the 1998 Registrar-Registry Model.

If one assumes that the “License to Print Money” for
TLD Registries remains.

If one assumes that .WEB is viewed as a “Premium TLD”.

If the new DNS (SCUBA) Software continues to gain
market share, with WEB.COM used as the “Root
of .WEB”.

One would expect .WEB to “make it” given the
sheer size and financial power of the 2010 players.

Comparing that to 1998 and the .WEB efforts
is remarkably different.

Could ICANN stop .WEB if they wanted to ?
