Or a new car make that starts with Z etc. It sounds mysterious so could market it in anticipation of some big unveiling.. I am suprised some rich arab sheik didn't buy it since many arabic names and company names start with Z and they are a sucker for classy looking shit.. web addresses, sequential phone numbers, etc.
Making money off the bat doesn't mean turning a profit on the buying price. But yes, z.com is obviously not a domain for anybody. Yet as I said above, in the right hands it could be turned into a goldmine quite fast, much faster than sex.com or porn.com, given the proper marketing resources and effort.
