That said... I do not think they work. I feel people will not associate the logos with .TV -Some might, but not all...

Video does not always need to be translated. I think when you consider the global popularity of the sport and how popular soccer highlights and videos are, he has an excellent vision here.

I am unable to agree on this being an effective brand. If the goal is to drive a prospect to a website. Spell-it-out. We live on a planet with 6 billion. That's 6 billion interpretations. Try this, ask two friends to describe a hot fudge sundae to you in one minute. You will get two completely different versions of a hot fudge sundae. And that's just two. IM humble, yet advertising experienced O, spell it out and focus on .com. Sorry. I am unable to agree on this being an effective brand. If the goal is to drive a prospect to a website. Spell-it-out.

I don't want this to become another thread about .tv, but you just mentioning it gives it more credibility. If the same case were with .pro or .mobi I don't think you're point would've resonated with anyone. :-) Thanks! ~another .tv fan <strong>***UPDATED BY ELLIOT***</strong> I think .tv works well in this situation. I personally don't own them, but in the case of a sport, the .tv can work. Funny that you used .tv as an example.

I think .tv works well in this situation. I personally don’t own them, but in the case of a sport, the .tv can work.
