The internet is in it's infancy. It will be used for many different things that haven't even been thought of yet. It needs new TDL's to expand. Yes, for websites we have enough TDL's, but the internet will be used for much more than websites.
Think about these made up examples:
1.) New TDL - .alarm
Used by an alarm company - streetaddress.zipcode.alarm
This would tell the alrm company where the alarm is from. Allow them to control cameras, sensors, check for locked/unlocked doors and windows etc.
2.) New TDL - .traffic
Used by a highway department - milemarker.street.traffic
Cameras and sensors can be read and controlled remotely to open up more lanes or divert traffic to a detour route.
3.) New TDL - .track - nodenumber.channel.track
Used on a closed transportation channel that will keep track of and regulate the advancement and speed of driverless cars.
4.) New TDL - .video - account.media
Used by a media company to let you access and download media from anywhere with an internet connection. You would not need a regular pc to access this.
5.) New TDL - .mfg - machine.mfg
Allows a company to remotely control manufacturing. This could be halfway around the world.
6.) New TDL - .dr - patient.dr
Allows a doctor to monitor and control remotely. Think about experts watching in on a surgery and providing advice.
--------
There are many many new uses for new TDL's that haven't even been thought of yet. These crude examples I thought up as I wrote.
I don't view the new TDL's as a threat to domaining. For websites, com will stay king because of people. It would take two decades to get people to unlearn .com and adjust to something else for ecommerce etc.
