I am, personally and through several businesses,  a registrant of multiple .com domain names.

When does the corporate greed end?  With ICANN being the only provider for their services – we, the public, are beholden to them much like a monopoly.  I would like to see where price increases are going – what services are being improved and generally, what is the justification for continuous incremental price hikes? 

I do not see how Verisign has any business dictating prices anyway – they provide no value in the domain registration process – they are simply a manager of the .COM registry.  It is the ultimate example of corporate bureaucracy – inserting a middleman where none is needed – simply to generate money.

Really guys, come back to earth.
