But now, I will not be registering any new names with them at all. I'm an Enom reseller and a .com costs me, with the price increase, $7.45/yr. It's a no brainer, Enom will be getting my business from now on and the business of plenty of domainers; and as names come up for renewal, well, guess where they'll end up.

If anything, domain name prices should go down since the technology is more affordable and the infrastructure has already been paid for. Verisign's decision to increase the price for the domain names' prices is one thing, ICANN's inability to stop them in their tracks is another, although it's equally disturbing. The lower the domain name prices are, the more democratic the web will stay. Who will benefit from this price hike? Verisign, some greedy registrars and that's about it — everybody else is on the losing end of this deal.
