While geographic rather than generic, I find Edmon Chung's current presentation about the benefits of .asia quite convincing.
There are about four billion people in Asia. There are about 195,000 domains in .ASIA. Perhaps the .005% of people in Asia who have registered a domain (actually less than that, once you account for multiple registrations and parking) think it's swell, but for the other 99.995%, it's utterly irrelevant. By comparison, there are over a million names in .JP and over 3 million in .CN. There's over 200,000 in .HK, more than in all of .ASIA.
