In my mind as soon as the .XXX thing came into place, Visa and Mastercard would be on the horn announcing new worldwide rules for adult sites requiring that they are all on domains in the .XXX tld. More importantly, they could require companies likes CCBill and others to refuse or bounce traffic that came from .com domains.

Imagine all those .com, .net, org, and .everythingelse domains suddenly becoming worthless.

The big get bigger... the big love regulation. The small suffer.

Alex thanks for the domain lesson but they have already become more expensive for me.

My first one was for free back in 1993.

.net and org is crap if your basing it totaly on the domain market value. I only own .coms.

Regulation is coming in one form or another. Ive already posted what Bill Margold is proposing.

If I was to have to guess Id say it will come from the billing companies. They have the missing and most important piece.
