I would bet that the largest customer base of all registrars is the domain monetizer or speculator. I believe it is by far the largest segment of the industry. There is nothing illegal, immoral, or otherwise negative about this segment of the industry.

However, from the registrant/user point of view, they don't seem to provide any added value, quite the contrary, the only effect is to reduce the set of available names for other uses.
