Actually to be perfectly honest, from my point of view, $30/year can be tolerated. C'mon, that's 150 pesos a month (roughly). I think this is the point of view of (most) companies here in the Philippines. the price is outrageous, yes, even compared to .co.UK because the UK is extremely rich compared to our poor country. But MOST companies which WANT a .PH domain can afford 150 pesos a month. And that "marginally acceptable" pricing is what keeps the outcry from becoming too loud. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
