Hi,

I wanted to voice a comment against the increase in price for .com
registrations. .com and other TLD registration prices continue to rise
despite the industry maturing into a stable situation where it ought to be
able to sustain service at the same price. I would argue that it is
monopolistic to raise prices in this way as long as Verisign is a
for-profit company. The market and consumes would be better served by the
TLD operator being a non-profit and letting natural competition occur at
the Registrar level. As long as Verisign, and other TLD Operators, have no
competition then any price increase should be viewed with skepticism.
