Personally I see the .xxx as someone's idea of a way to make money. From that standpoint, I'm sorry I didn't think of the idea myself and figure out how to get a cut off every one of the registrations. When .xxx becomes a fact, what registrars will handle it? The same ones that handle .com, .net, .biz, etc? If so, I guess quite a few people stand to make some money on it.
To the industry, it's a fucking joke. Child pornographers don't care about .xxx, they don't care about .com, they don't care about anything. The vast majority of them aren't in the US would be my guess.
The government is going to do everything it can in the next few years to cripple this industry. I think that so many people's time could be so much better spent figuring out how to keep their legs under them than bickering with every other segment of this industry.
I'd use my herding cats statement but that one's been appropriated over the years by so many other people I don't like the taste of it in my mouth any more.

Some peeps who are in this industry and that we look upon are going to make a few bucks out of it.
This deal as been well thaught off and planned.
It's how we will as an industry, Roll with the Punches that will make a difference.
In many threads regarding this issue many of you have placed great comments and although I truly beleive that ASCAP is there for a good cause and working for one of the big problems in the industry. But I have to agree with Connor, although they say they are biase and do not agree or disagree, they have made it clear in a letter they think it's a great idea and with that statement and makign a cut out of the $10 for each domain sold, well, shows at some point they are keen on the Idea...
