I would like to submit my letter of opposition to amendment 3. I feel that by raising the prices of the .COM TLD it will harm the registrar economy. I personally own 3 domains: one .NET, one .VENTURES, and one .COM. The .COM one I buy as a birthday gift for my best friend every year. I don't want to see a price hike for any of them, as I cringe every year at renewal time as it is. However, I would like to submit a counter. If there was an option to pay monthly, I would not be opposed to a small price change like the one suggested in amendment 3.
