Yeah, a bit contrarian, maybe domainer's equivalent to baggy pants and untied shoelaces ... Just appreciating the irony of the frenzy to scrape the absolute bottom of the LLLL barrel in the final minute of the recent buyout, hoping at least to scoop up "the" last one of the hand regs as a trophy specimen.

Given that this is actually the second LLLL.com buyout (first happened around 2000/2001), the adoration of the anti-premium seemed perhaps a sign of the coming apocaLLLLypse as per William "Filter" Yeats classic "The Second Coming" (domainer's edition) ->

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The domain cannot find the end user;
Things fall apart; the aftermarket cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the registrar,
The un-pronounceable URL is parked, and everywhere
The click-through rate of traffic is drowned;
The best lack all back links, while the worst
Pay with high-interest rate credit cards.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Buyout is at hand.
The Second Buyout! Hardly are those[/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] URLs regged[/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
When a vast image out of "Fabulous Moniker"
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the GoDaddy
A URL with no vowels and the tail of an alphabet,
A domain blank and pronounceable as line noise,
Is building its link farms, while all about it
Echo hoots of the indignant domainer pros.
The RERS Group buys again; but now I know
That seven years of stony sleep
Were updated to nightmare by an unrelenting DYYO,
Now what rough beast, its reg fee come round at last,
Slouches towards VeriSign to be dropped?[/FONT]

very eloquent and well told poem!

the term "anti-premium" can also be viewed as ...
"a "non-discriminatory" view towards the letters of the alphabet.

i've seen sales, where a seller "devalues" his own domain, by referring to one of the letters as "non-premium"?
