Who feels the value of .tv domains lies beyond video or tv related sites? I mean, I know .tv is actually a CCTLD but I still generally feel video related sites would be more suitable for .tv based on it's connotations.

I agree that .tv best suits Video/Media sites but many people/companies have used .tv domains purely do buy strong keywords that would of cost a fortune in any other credible extension.

There is also a growing trend of companies using .tv domains to go with TV based advertising campaigns, in many of these cases they are not 'Video sites' but using .tv's on Tv Advertisements does work well & make perfect sense. IMHO

There have been discussions on this issue before I believe. Ray wrote up a lengthly one on this like merchantaccount.tv and etc.

Like to add one other piece of info. Everyone is talking geo this, geo that as if that is the only market for .tv.

I hold a lot of eccomerce related names and I can't see the role out of qoof and Richards vision on this. The qvc of .tv basically. He has a vision and going do amazing things for the .tv extension I am sensing.

I feel any visually oriented site will shine on .TV ... I also believe .TV is more
mobile than .mobi ... to me the mobile phone is really a small TV. :tu:

For the end user most think of .tv related to video/tv. And that was my focus when I started buying .tv in 2000. However, that is expanding now into other areas now with the emergence of online video. Therefore, a name like drink.tv
made no sense to register in 2000 now is valuable in today's market. Also, look at the trends worldwide with .tv and not just in your country. I was very surprised and happy how .tv is doing great in many countries.

Thanks, Jim
