Dot xxx renewal time approaches.... what is the consensus of opinion?

I have been waiting for somebody else to start a thread like this but as nobody else has, (that I have seen), I will......

I may be wrong, but it felt to me that most people that snapped up .xxx names last year did so for brand protection or out of fear that somebody else would snatch something they had the dot com for. I know I fall into that category.

Of course there were those who bought up what they considered premium domains, with a view to quickly flip, or hold and sell for millions, but I think that the domain price and the fact that most really prime names were held back, contributed to fewer players in that game, and to be honest, I can't remember either noticing an active dot xxx website, or seeing any being re-sold.

Marketing also seems to have died out and basically, it looks shot to me although they are probably banking on some major renewal dollars which could fund some more marketing campaigns however with renewal notices at around $90 a domain dropping in the mailboxes, I am sure many like me are wondering if it is worth it.

I am still undecided to be honest, and wondered what other peoples' views were. Will you be walking away, or will you be staying in for the duration?

Those that are walking away, post what you might be dropping. You never know somebody might want to take it off your hands.

I will start. Will hold my own brands, but thinking of dropping camgirlchat.xxx
