And lose share to the one who doesn't slow down?
I seem to remember the biggest reason for the flood away from the monopoly
registrar when *that* floodgate opened was that the other registrars promised
updates "this day rather than this month".
(And yes, the whole .com/.net/.org/.biz landscape is enough of a mess that the
comment applies to "registries" as well as "registrars" - a local radio station
has 'wrov.cc' because 'wrov.com' is a domain in Korea)...
