From Communicate.com's (Live Media) 10-K: The Company's intangible assets, which consist of its portfolio of generic domain names, have been determined to have an indefinite life and as a result are not amortized.

I believe this means big potential for many domainers down the road. It relates to some of your other recent posts about Partnerships and seeking positive relationships with other domainers. It will be interesting to see how much mainstream media reports on this. Hopefully headline stuff in CNNMoney. http://BuyTheRightDomain.com Sounds like great PR for the domain industry.
