Honestly, the cost set for simply availing itself of a non-Cost of Goods service such as Domain Name Registration is high enough. When there is such a monopolistic service, we need to be vigilant about who/how those prices should be changed. There is no need�and it's a TRAVESTY to allow�a change in the whole sale price of .COM domain registration. Unless there is a public accounting on the INCOME and PROFIT associated with the .COM domain registration process and an OPEN BID option, with guidelines like a typical RFP that allows any company access to that revenue, then the pricing should stay as is.
