You think that every expired domain is being picked right up? That would be the surprising claim. We see reports all the time of people letting domains expire and then reregistering them. Not every expired domain is the subject of a speculator's grabby aspirations. There are a number of OpenSRS RSPs who are picking up expired domains without using any Snapnames like company. Snapnames do not have some "unbeatable" technology, and nor is every expired domain going to be immediately attractive to those who use Snapnames like services. -- Best regards, William X Walsh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --
