Like I said above, there is a trickle down effect that is going to hurt Fabulous too.

arghhh... I program in most of the major languages, and am a perl fanatic at the system level, but the prospect of developing 1500 domains, even into mini-sites, is a bit frightening.

Overall, this is going to impact sales too, since many resellers price their domains based on ppc and traffic. With search engine placement way down and advertiser competition tanking, this will hurt resale value. The times they are a changing.
If you have decent domains you are not reliant on parking pages getting SERP.

Top keywords have never got SERP!

No wonder people are happy registering crap, when they think this is how the system works!
