Thanks for the info, Bill ... Re-reading some of the info brings back memories (I wonder if I kept that letter somewhere :-)
While the domain.com mail-out of the google-sponsored ad-words is not enticing me to pay for renewal services, it is enticing me to pay $25 to get $100 worth of google-sponsored ad-words and is still slamming the domains by sending out unsolicited junk mail, as I've never dealt with domain.com. I am a bit surprised that google has associated itself with a company that does this type of marketing - that's my real surprise.

And CIRA, where are you when we need you? Can't DRoC be deregistered for ".ca" at least, due to unethical practises?
