Using a .tv domain for a tube site

What do you guys think about using a .tv domain for a tube site? I've seen a decent number of tubes recently that use it. Do you think it looks stupid/unprofessional?

What would you say is better? Using a longer (10+ letters) .com domain or a shorter, more memorable .tv domain? Do you know any big tube sites using this tld?

I'm having trouble finding any short or catchy domains for a particular niche and I'm thinking about maybe using a .tv domain. What would you recommend?

Its always better using com domain, but if you are serious about the site and going to work hard on content, seo etc then theres no problem using tv domain.

Haven't seen too many tubes on .tv domains. I personally prefer .com/.net instead of anything else, even if we're talking about the new TLD's.

I would go with .com unless it's really great (one word/EMD) .tv domain.

This is exactly what I'm asking. Here's my dilemma/trilemma:

[niche]pornclips.com
[niche]clips.tv
[niche]vids.tv

Which one would you pick? I'm thinking that the .tv domains would attract more type-in/return traffic because, well, they're easier to type in and remember.

It is still pretty new tld and I am sure you can still find a decent .com domain, just be creative.

I this case, I'm not sure, I meant something really nice like bigtits.tv, gayporn.tv etc.

With the right content, name and branding -- the TLD (.tv) is fine

You should factor in the cost of a .TV domain name.

They are significantly more expensive than other TLD's.

You may catch a break on the initial registration but the renewals will be full price.
