Exactly----the domain business is all about risk----if you dont risk you cant make money.
If I had not risked $7.00 a couple months ago on Supernaturalcosmetics.com because it was a new makeup my wife was using---I would not have sold it for $500.00 2 weeks ago.
If I had not taken a risk 2 weeks ago when I heard about a new ringtone that only kids can hear because as adults we lose some of are hearing for high-pitched sounds ( called mosquitotone ) then I would not have regged FreeMosquito.com which in the last 2 days has received 20 views and 7 clicks.
I will take the risk when it comes to a few dollars

I somehow doubt the Zune will be an iPod killer if it comes out. Microsoft would also need a huge music download site to compete with iTunes to have even a remote chance. Sure, I bet MSN could advertise the hell out of one and get something going, but not enough to compete IMO. We'll see I guess. A lot of people thought Microsoft was dead in the water with X-Box too.

Exactly my point to all the doubters. I agree it will probably never overtake the iPod but Microsoft gets it done. Period.

Been watching the posts here all day feeling bad because I got called out on business earlier today with ZuneZone sitting in the cart and when I returned it was gone. After that I lost interest in taking the plunge.

The names on my 'interesting list' list kept getting smaller. While ago I discovered my NameDrive deposit had been made so I reg'd
ZuneMart-com and
ZuneBuzz-com just cause I like the sound. Wonder if anyone ever has success with a forum type site using the buzz suffix.

Still there
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-name-discussion/215759-microsofts-ipod-killer-officially-named-zune.html
ZuneExtras-com, ZuneXtras-com, ZuneAccessory-info (I really like this), ZuneTown-com

Those saying this is a waste of money may well be right but there is very little reward without risk.

Hello,

I understand that we have one of the most diverse communities on the internet. With that in mind, I feel the need to ask all who read this thread to please say a prayer for a wonderful person. “Christine Pechera” has undergone a procedure that we hope will save her life. She underwent a partial match bone marrow transplant on July 5th, and while we do not have an update on her condition, I hope our prayers can, in some way, help her.



If you can find it in your heart, please say a prayer for an exceptional person:
Christine Pechera



Thanks,
Kimmy

The other thing that you have to look at is will microsoft follow myspace's lead and just send a lot of C & D letters out because if they Reg the tm ZUNE there is no doubt that people are infringing on a tm. Now if you have a developed review site or online magazine incorporating a name that one thing, but if just looking to sell it definitely is infringement. AND not sure how many IPOD names or XBOX names or WII names have shown up on DN JOURNAL sales charts over the years. SOME people got some good ones here but I think you have to put a little dev into them as a precautionary move

Hi everybody,

I made a little research and found this:

web.archive.org/web/20010309030533/http://zune.com

Think I`m not gonna reg some zune domains. In Germany its to expensive to mess with Bill...
Maybe they haven`t released a trademark for (music class)zune, but I`m sure, that they already startet the process.

The results from 2001 show a different result than that. Imagine that...microsoft has owned that name for a long time it looks like. I checked the whois and didn't see a reference to microsoft at all. But the name is regged:

Record expires on 21-Jun-2009.
Record created on 22-Jun-1998.

Could he be an employee? Quite strange.

You don't see many sales, but you can be sure that the folks with the best xbox/ipod, and later wii, domains are laughing all the way to the PPC bank.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=215759

In the meantime, I see zune.com was registered in 1998, so the lucky owner of that is going to get a nice boost in traffic. I also noticed that 'Zunecast.com' was registered on May 24th, either coincidence or an insider I guess, I know where my money is

I missed the boat on this one, but you can always count on piracy to be popular, so I grabbed Zunetorrents.com, 'zunewarez.com' still unregged right now if anyone else wants to grab it. (Btw, not that I'd create a pirate torrents site, for ppc only).
