So I get this email today from directnic who is an internet registrar.

Dear Scott,

Registrations for the new .XXX extension start September 7th, 2011 and directNIC is getting ready for the hottest launch in domain history!
The .XXX namespace is unique in that it allows you to clearly identify the content of your sites by the end of their address. As an existing member of the online adult community, you know that the XXX brand means business, and registering a .XXX domain means more opportunities for your business. In addition to the built-in branding, .XXX sites will be promoted and verified as trustworthy sites.
By breaking up the launch into three unique phases, the .XXX launch gives you multiple ways to participate. Choose the phase that’s right for you!


The two sunrise periods run from Sept. 7th – Oct. 28th, 2011. The separate periods allow you to:

Sunrise A: Members of the online adult community can register an existing trademark as a .XXX domain, or register a .XXX based on an existing domain you own in a different TLD.
Sunrise B: Customers who do not wish to be a part of the Sponsored Community can defensively block their trademark from being registered as a .XXX


The Landrush runs from Nov. 8th - Nov. 25th, 2011. In this phase, customers can register premium domains with no associated trademark.
And finally, .XXX goes to General Availability on Dec. 6th., 2011 Registrations from this point forward will be rewarded on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Bulk discounts are available on multiple .XXX registrations, and are extremely competitive.
Check out our pre-registration phases (http://directnic.com/xxx/order.php) today to see which one works for you! Pre-orders are available now!
Call us at 877.856.9598 from 12:00 - 00:00 GMT / 7:00am - 7:00pm CST - M-F or e-mail us at support@directnic.com for more information.


Since I have no interest in #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&.xxx being used I looked at Sunrise B.

WTF!!! I got to pay $229 to keep some cheesejob from registering this? Are you serious? Whose idiotic idea was this?
