American.TV, Canadian.TV, Chinese.TV, Japanese.TV, French.TV, Brazilian.TV and so on?

i love them- i think they fit perfect simply because of tv lingo- its a natural thing to say- on american tv, you will find these types of shows- canadian tv is full of other types of shows-

to me it is just a natural way to say it

I own dominican.tv which is a Premium name. Not much traffic. I also own Panamanian.tv which is not a premium, but also does not get any traffic to talk about. I may own a couple of others.

I love them. I have Espanol.tv, SouthKorean.tv, Arabic.tv, Romanian.tv, and Portuguese.tv. Some are premiums and some are not such as SouthKorean.tv and Romanian.tv. Espanol.tv has received offers over $20,000 the others no offers yet.

Thanks, Jim

I think they are great, but I also am willing to bet 99% of the good ones are gone.

And they also are not as easy to get anyway.

For instance, you could have England.tv, but there really is no alternative like Enlandian.tv. The solution would be English.tv, but that would be gone as well.

I dont like them too much but IF they are reg fee then they are a reasonable safe bet.

For you guys who do like these sort of name: Italiano.tv dropped yesterday, as of yesterday afternoon it was still available but now with a $500 a yr Premium Fee.

The only one I have is SaudiArabian.tv

These types of names can be useful down the road, I am assuming that time will dictate value.

MenontonTV is an unknown quantity at this point
 



I think demonym/language .tv is excellent especially when the target population is spread across the globe.
I'm really happy to have Cantonese.TV as a non-premium.
Given the overseas Chinese love of long running blockbusters (even in bumper pack video CD format) there should be a lot of takers for a quailty broadcast over the net without the cost/delay of postage or the extra clutter round the house. And is there a more aptly named place on the net to host Cantonese TV?

For you information i have estonian.tv on Sedo auction:
see ESTONIAN.TV

about 53,000,000 results for " estonian"

Estonian is the official language of Estonia, spoken by about 1.1 million people in Estonia and tens of thousands in various émigré communities. It is a Finno-Ugric language and is closely related to Finnish.
