"TENS of new TLDs" and 5 Registries ? 2 Each ?
This is going to be just like the NFL and the
NBA. The 5 Registries will all line up to
make their first-round draft pick.
VeryBlind takes .COM in the first round
NewStar takes .NET
Asilliness takes .ORG
Esther takes .PRO
Mike takes .XXX
Yep, that is competition all right.
Now, in the second round the above 5 choose again.

At this stage of the game, why would anyone with
an ounce of clue be suggesting that people allow
ICANN to get their claws on a TLD ?
Do you really want to see ICANN ruin 20 TLDs at
a time ?
ICANN was created by the U.S. Government to do
some market trials, not to become a regulator
operated by a bunch of Jon Postel groupies.
Those days are over. Go find a naive country
if you want to play that game.
Please allow new TLDs to grow and old TLDs to
be RE-LAUNCHED. Allow the second-level name
owners from the market trials to migrate if
they want or fade away. They can choose.
Think of it like broadcast TV and cable TV.
Some stations may migrate and some may not.
New channels will also emerge. ICANN will not
be helpful in any of those evolutions. Consumers
will drive demand, not ICANN, via regulated supply.
