All of these sunrise launches were marketed by greedy registries with money making hype and propaganda about huge potential opportunities. Everyone is looking for information on the Internet. (.info) There are millions of small businesses that aren't online and need their own sites. (.biz) Business professionals need to stand out from the crowd with their own sites. (.pro) Travel is a major industry with $billions in annual revenue. (.travel) Use of mobile devices is surging and everyone will need to access the Internet with their phones or tablets. (.mobi & .tel)

No, don't waste your money. Buy good .com domains.

I doubt companies like Pussycash are going to drop 5 million dollars for no reason on .xxx domains
SEX.XXX Sells For $3 Million Part Of A $5 Million Deal (cam.xxx, phone.xxx, black.xxx etc.) | OnlineDomain.com
There were buyers of .mobi who got suckered into paying record breaking six-figure prices for .mobi domains. Where are the deep pocketed buyers for .mobi now? You can't give that shit away. What happened to the grand plans for gay.xxx? After a $500k winning bid and 3+ years, it's still "Coming Soon".

This new wave of TLDs is going to have the same result, but on a much larger scale with more people getting burned and losing their investment money. It's going to end as well as the Dutch tulip mania bubble from the 1600s. Charles Mackay's Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds is essential reading for any investor. Get it at Amazon and read it before you become the next victim.
