.XXX is not supported by the vast majority of the adult industry it claims to represent.
I am sure ICM Registry will do fine for one major reason -
Their bread and butter will just be defensive regs.
People whoâs only interest in .XXX is stopping potential abuse of their brand/TM.
In fact much of their marketing has been around "protecting your brand".
Many people consider this type of behavior legal extortion, and it sets a bad precedent for future extensions.
There is a reason the majority of major companies are against the new gTLD program.

Yes, and this is sooo true of each and every (non-restricted) extension.
There are enough possible names in com/net/org/gov/mil, that the market doesnt need the other 275 flavors.
(and now with unlimited extensions coming, every company or trademark will have to hedge their bets in a forever trail of registrations unneeded.)
