Hello, I wanted charter.tv but when I saw that it cost $15k to reg and then the uncertain associated renewal fee, I moved on.

Here is a thought; if you were to reg charrter.tv for standard reg
fee, you could build a nice site that provides marketing services to
all the charter services in various industries.

Hmmm... 15K versus $35.00 per year, worth a second look any way,
don't ya think?

Have a great day everyone!

Personally, I dont think that would make a good .tv site.

IMO, the whole .tv thing should be used for media, specifically video.

Now, being that is the case, would you think that video has anything to do with charters? Only if you were doing a video sample of each charter, that would make more sense to me.

anyway, thats just one mans thought.

I appreciate your input

UneekTT, please tell me why you think charter.tv is being offered
for $15,000 a year?

Thank you

Hi, dpari,

it might be that the powers that be know the values of a .tv extension OR that they are thinking within the box of .com and like extensions, and not outside of it.

As a forewarning, many names that have enjoyed favor with .com may very well be a lead balloon in the realm of .tv or .mobi, for that matter.

just another guesstimation on my part. Think media, media media and you will be fine.

I think that its being offered for $15k because the powers that be (either Enom or Verisign or Demand Media) think that they can get the money from that domain. But just because THEY "think" that it is worth $15k does NOT mean that it is worth that kind of money. I mean if that is the case, heck, I think that my http://www.GoHD.TV is worth $50k - wanna get a great deal? I will sell it right now for only $10k.

Now, What is Charter.tv really worth?

Well, in MY OPINION, it is only "worth" what someone is willing to spend. And in this case, I do not think anyone should spend $15k on that domain.

Once again, these are just my opinions and should be treated as such.

Do I think it is worth $15K?
yes.

will I pay it?
no.

why?
I have other names that I'd rather buy for my money. Plus, I already have purchased some names that may cover that market if needed.

why is it worth so much?
if that was the sole industry I did business in... I would secure it immediately. it is a true category killer... both Charter.TV &/or Charters.TV would be money well-spent.

shouldn't .TV developers focus only on MEDIA?
Possibly, but you could add lots of MEDIA to the site to help attract/retain/sell consumers. i.e. If you were selling Charter services for yachts... I would feature a few videos of the yachts we offer and videos of people enjoying their packages, etc... video testimonials... brief video about company, etc... lots of sizzle and info... selling the dream.

on the other hand...
Charter.TV may be priced so high because either DEMAND or VERISIGN are hoping that Charter Communications (internet, cable tv, etc) buy it to protect their mark. http://www.Charter.com - not making an accusation, just wondering... and after seeing NFL.TV priced substantially higher ($7500) than other LLL.TVs ($500+), I am leaning towards this influence on current pricing of the $15K reg/renewal model.
