.Stream is inexpensive if you know where to look.
Famous Four Media is launching the .stream top level domain name on Wednesday.
The company makes it a practice of offering domain names cheap for the first year. And indeed, 101Domain is charging only $1.32 for first year registrations.
Interestingly, I’m not finding similar prices at other registrars. Even AlpNames, with has a strong connection to Famous Four Media is asking $25.99 at this point, although I expect it to drop prices later.
GoDaddy shows regular pricing of $39.99, although you can get them for about $10 with the Domain Discount Club.
Famous Four Media’s low-cost (and sometimes free) pricing strategy has helped it land 6 top level domains within the top 20 on nTLDStats: .win, .bid, .science, .loan, .party and .date.

.Stream? LOL
>”.Stream is inexpensive if you know where to look.”
They’ll have to look for me because except for a few keywords I wouldn’t even want it for free.
Definitely not one of the few great ones among the herd.

Hi Andrew,
Indeed, we are excited about the launch of .STREAM and see a lot of potential in this TLD. Rest assured that AlpNames intends to offer a very, very special and competitive launch price for .STREAM that we feel sure will not disappoint – the $25.99 price that you quote in the article is our pre-GA pricing which remains in place until the initiation of the GA phase later this afternoon.
Watch this space!
All the best,
The AlpNames Team.
