In the poll, 4 names quickly stood out:
* lmms-project.org ~8€|| Vote: 13 votes
* lmms.pro 16$        || Vote: 8 votes
* lmms.io ~40€/y      || Vote: 5 votes
* Lmms.center 19€   || Vote: 4 votes

I propose collecting arguments for and against each domain, and then
voting a second time.
I'll just start:

## lmms.io ## 40€/y
+ Very, very short, thus very easy to remember
+ IO stands for input/output, which can be understood as audio or midi
input/output, or input/output in the community on the sharing platform
* One could argue that io is a bit uncommon, but I fell that it's
gaining a lot of popularity lately
* You just can't say anything against it :)

## lmms.center ## 12,20€/y
+ "center" is a quite strong name
-- Very uncommon domain, thus hard to remember.
- .center is not only uncommon, but also long

## lmms.pro ## 16$/y
+ "pro" could stand for project
- pro could also be understood as "professional", and calling
ourselves pros in our domain is just cocky
- Very uncommon as well

## lmms-project.org ## 8€/y
+ It says that there's not only the software lmms, but also a
"project", a community around it, i.e. the sharing platform
+ Very easy to remember (.org is also extremely common among
open-source projects)
- It's the longest domain in the list

That's what I could find in a few minutes.
Please post your arguments for each of those domains here, I'll
collect them and then start a poll. ;-)
