.tv Music.tv picked up for $50!

Spaceship Spaceship
Watch
I'll be first to say congrats to Jimbo for picking up Music.tv (an ex FMA name) for $50! Rare that this will happen, but a true Verisign pricing glitch.

Enjoy!

Not in every post and I will say trolling as a learning technique sounds ridiculous. If someone is a newbie and needs learning they should be reading the stickied thread first.

How do you propose someone get educated, without signing up to any certain forum? "Trolling" may be used in instances where it shouldn't be.

Keith what part of there is an educational post at the top of this forum are you not getting ? Stickied and does not go away so that someone new, knowing nothing about the extension can read up.

This is also not the reason for the member in question is posting. Let me ask you something Keith you have posted in this forum for years, why have you not been adding Tuvalu, in each post ?

Thirdly this was not being put out there for a vote, this was being stated as what is going to happen for that kind of behavior.

Lastly the member can start a thread about why he does not like .tv or whatever issue he has, he will not hijack other threads.

Another positive, truthful post deleted. Any post which includes the truthful reminder that .tv stands for Tuvalu is not tolerated. This post may be left untouched to prove me wrong, but my previous post congratulating the buyer of music-dot-tuvalu was deleted. And indeed, it was a positive, congratulatory post.

Many here have blinders on, or don't want the truth to propagate, or both.

ANd you wonder why we think you are a low life troll ……just can't help your self it seems

On a brighter note www.soundcloud.com is the site i was thinking of, except music/tv would be a visual site instead ….all new music clips by original artists that can release one or two clips then they pay a fee for next submissions

Well it's my duty to say, Eric and "members" have it wrong. "Trolling" could very well be a learning technique. Assuming all members and browsers know what .tv stands for is ridiculous.
seriously ?

You're wanting to draw a line between signing up and browsing. Either way, you crawl before you run. Making folks aware of an extensions true meaning, in this case, Tuvalu, is certainly worth noting.

serious when wasting our time and siding with the trolls, i guess you like the ignore list

You know better.

Nobody here considers me a joke. If they do, they're misguided.

You're making assumptions based on your experience, not considering someone with less knowledge. As stated, Heynow has a poor way of expressing his opinion. Poor expression doesn't equal fallacy.

But it does equal boorishness in his case.

MUSIC Friggen Dot TV!

Wow, Pretty Incredible score here James.

I don't think there are too many better domains out there at all, and I mean in any extension.
This isn't just a grerat domain, or just a lucky day. This domain is a life changer in my honest opinion.
I know you have an insanely awesome portfolio but this one singular domain really has to make you think about developing 200% of your time, efforts, and money into it because this domain is a Monster Business/Company unto itself.

I have to say I really feel FMA's pain. This has happened to me before as well, but most likely James will make something very very special with this rock solid dot tv gem.

Congrats My Brother!

If you ever wish to travel to Tuvalu to find out the truth for yourself I would suggest you use the official Tuvalu government visitor website … a real life Tuvalu orientated website - oh, and a dot-com going by the name of http://www.timelesstuvalu.com - perhaps they don't know that they should be using .tv or even worse, that .com actually means .commercial

They lost the privilege of reserving a relevant .tv name for themselves when they foolishly leased the rights to Verisign. Otherwise, who knows what they would have chosen.

Wow congratulations to Jimbo! I haven't even kept my eye on .tv in ages. I'm curious to know how you managed to claim this Backorder at Name.com only a few weeks ago?? Because when I checked Music.tv a while ago it was already BO there? (I occassionally do a scan of premium .tv domains to see if they're backordered or not)? I can't believe somebody would cancel the backorder for this? Am I missing out on something new in the .tv world?

Again congrats, it's a 6 figure name! WOW. :)

The best catch, for a 'song and a prayer', ever. Congrats!

BTW, if your not making money from Internet TV -your doing it wrong.
What 'Internet TV' sites have you developed?

Thanks to everyone, but no one was as surprised as I was!

In reality, we are all barking mad for being involved in internet TV in the first place (whether as domainer or developer, filmographer or flipper).

This will be developed….
… which means I will lose a load more money on stupid internet TV

Please develop the domain... Google's YouTube has been alienating indie labels and threatening to ban them unless they accept poor terms, a music-only tube website I think is a great idea... we all know the collapsed social networking website myspace was recycled for musicians... and they have seemed to rescued it to a reasonable extent.

A lot of hassle getting investors on board but I think a bit of crowdfunding would go down a storm.

As for .tv the "allegations" are true to the extent it started off in 1996 as that, since 2006 however its rebranded for television/rich media websites etc. Reminds me... There used to be a decent tech channel here called .tv was a sad day when that went. Anyone remember it?
