Let me see if I can poke a hole in your theory....
Everyone always talks about domains being Internet Real Estate, right? So imagine that I buy a piece of property right in the heart of the busiest intersection of downtown metropolis, lets call it ABC.COM. I get my property right in the heart of everything that is going on, there is shopping, nightlife, dinning, shows, entertainment....so my property is valuable, right?
Just like the the real estate world, many years later someone is going to go into the suburbs and build another property that will compete with mine. It will be a really nice piece of property, but it will be 30 miles from downtown Metropolis, we will call it ABC.TM.
Now, lets answer some questions..... Is ABC.TM worth money? Yes. Can ABC.TM be a good location for me? Yes. Will ABC.TM ever be as valuable as ABC.COM? Nope. Will ABC.TM ever decrease the value of my Metropolis real estate, ABC.COM? Not on your life. Property in the heart of the city will always retain its value...its the suburbs that are always playing catch up baseball.
Of course, this is only my personal opinion...yours may be different.
