Is .com one of the world's biggest brands?

Charles Meyes, SVP Verisign was asked 'with 120 million really active websites, are we were running out of space for new names for websites?'

His response: 'internationalization of .net and .com promises continued expansion, and .com is one of the most compelling global brands around'. By example, he said significantly more .com and .net URL registrations happen in China than registration of .cn domains.
