CNET - After more than five years of talks and persuading, ICANN finally approved the .XXX domain which will be devoted to pornography. Yesterday, biggest supporter of .xxx domains, and future registrar ICMRegistrary announced victory, as ICANN conditionally allowed new domains. ICMRegistrary gave a bunch of reasons for .xxx domain, ranging from more efficient and transparent distribution of such content on the Internet, and better advertising revenue for the owners of domains. It is also no secret that the collection of new domain registration fees will be ritch.ICANN only told ICMRegistrary that they will check the financial and technical capabilities of the Registrar, to operate the new domain. The next step will be negotiations on a contract that will stipulate the precise obligations and responsibilities of both parties. Only after that will the domain .XXX be finally approved. But all this could happen as early as October. This would mean that the domain name. Xxx will be operational before year's end.

ICMRegistry said that they already have over 110,000 new .xxx domain reservations. Move to .xxx domain will be entirely voluntary, so other pornographic sites may also stay on other domains. The ICMRegistrary hopes to collect over $30 million in first year, since the domain name for one year would cost 60 dollars. Of which $ 10 went to nonprofit organizations for child protection.
