Dear Sir,
I am not completely convinced of your argument even recognizing
the value, because I learned that things in life tend to be more
complicated, lets say have more than one simple dimension.
But if I agree on your interpretation I must ask me and you why
ICANN staff introduced exactly that argument ( reduction of
marketshare of VeriSign ) to justify the change of the contract ?

topic.htm

B. CHANGES IN CIRCUMSTANCES SINCE THE ORIGINAL
AGREEMENT
...
Perhaps most relevantly, VeriSign's once-dominant market position
has been severely eroded. VeriSign's share of total registrations has
fallen to about 50%,
its share of new registrations to under 40%, and its share of net
new registrations (taking into account non-renewals and transfers)
to an even lower level. This
trend appears to be continuing in 2001.
...
snap-----------
It seems not logical for me to allow the argument only from one
point of view.
