   @skylar @ArdainianRight @DemonSixOne @ForbiddenDreamer @graf @Hoss The point is that with so many TLDs they aren't memorable. Domain squatters frequently make use of this inability remember if it's .com or .net, forcing site owners to pay for a whole bunch of similar domains to protect their brand because ICANN thought we needed .barefoot and .fail. The point of having a domain name over a bare IP is that IPs frequently change (new host/dc, CDN etc) while domain names should remain static. In today's DNS system, that's ALL they are good for.
