So unless the government forces all sites to shift to .xxx there is no benefit to buying one so I don't see why companies would do so other than to just redirect type in traffic to an existing site.

What are the compelling reasons anyone would buy one of these domains?
There is no benefit to buy a .XXX, and ICM knows that. That is why their ultimate goal is to make its use mandatory.

The only thing that matters is if a law can be passed in a country that has freedom of speech. All the other reasons to join .XXX is totally worthless.
