MEDIA ALERT



Demand Media and eNom to Release Premium .TV Domain Names

Nearly 53,000 Premium Names to be Brought Back to Market May 1


SANTA MONICA, CA AND BELLEVUE, WA, April 30, 2007 — Demand Media, Inc., the next-generation web media company, and its wholly owned subsidiary and largest wholesale registrar, eNom ®, announced today that premium .TV domain names will be made available tomorrow, May1st, at 1:00pm PT. Interested parties can go to www.domainsindemand.tv to register the nearly 53,000 names that have been off the market for close to five months.

In December of last year, Demand Media announced a strategic alliance with VeriSign, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRSN), to leverage Demand Media’s new media platform, industry relationships and web 2.0 expertise to increase .TV registrations. Demand Media is bringing the names to market in conjunction with the release of its proprietary tools to create video-centric websites with social networking with every .TV registration, free of charge.

I just thought I would break the tension of the premium delay and tell you how much I love your lips!

Guys, just becareful when you rush into buying these domains for a ridiculously high price.
The price may be artificially inflated for now imo.
They may make more money on the name than you ever will.

Are you bullsh***** or you really gave them a call. . . . . did they tell you what the hold up was. Recalculating the profits based on the increase in demand and a captive audience? Greed? come on had to be something. They were looking to increase their Ferrari collection?

Get your hands out of my pocket

Wondering how many NPers here are after the exact same names, I think many
