They could then use the domain Hustler.travel and not conflict with Hustler.com because they offer different products and services.
This is not the case with the .XXX extension which causes an immediate trademark conflict with adult industry trademarks registered as .coms.

Ok, again makes sense. But aren't they giving priority to trademark holders? I would think they'd want their adult extension and it would not be a big deal.
And just for the hell of it I typed in a couple, and hustler.info has adult crap on it already, doesn't look like the trademark owner. hustler.co has a marker page with adult links on it. This is already an issue and they're not enforcing their trademark with them I suppose?
Because yes, .xxx will be hot. I'm not afraid to say it.
