ICANN's next decision: Deleting the dot from new domains?
The Internet's next big land grab, which prompted Amazon.com to apply for the .music top-level domain and Google to bid for .cloud, is likely to come with a few limits.
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers is accepting comments through Sunday on whether it should ban applicants from using forthcoming top-level names -- thousands have been requested -- as single-word "dotless" domains.
Translated, that means Amazon.com could use http://amazon.music but not the single-word dotless http://music alternative.
