.XXX: How Much Does It Cost?

At the XBIZ show in London, I debated Stuart Lawley, CEO of ICM Registry, the entity that pushed through the .XXX sTLD. I know that many of those in the audience wanted answers and, unfortunately with the typical smoke and mirrors presentation from ICM I am afraid the confusion increased. One such issue was that of the various costs of .XXX. During the debate, I quoted the price of .XXX on GoDaddy as well as the price I had been quoted by two employees of Domain-Monster. As I explained that DomainMonster’s cost was $199 the CEO of the company corrected me saying the cost is $79. What he neglected to say was that the $79 names were only available under the “General Availability” category and only if you commit for 25 years!

Non-practicing entities (NPE), i.e. patentees that do not practice their own inventions, are buying up existing patents at an alarming rate and targeting companies that may or may not participate in activity that violates one or more of their patents. These entities are known more widely as patent trolls.
