Shows the market as it is. By the way wwwmatch.com had a wipo in 2003 Match.com, L.P., v.

I think you're right -- need to do it on the expensive domains. If nothing else people won't want to report them :) jblack – I think 99% of the UDRPs are for people that got typos at reg fee or low cost.

The more TM infringement period, the more generics get WIPO'd. Decrease the infringers by stinging them with WIPO defeats, they will learn the lesson that its too expensive, not worth the risk etc. Like the guys who just bought the high priced TM infringing names, should surprise no one when they get WIPO'd.
