    I have the above domain hack. If you don't know what it is, have a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_hack

    It could be developed into a listing of the upcoming movies & where the cinemas are located or something like IMDB.com or an online store selling DVDs, etc.

    Appraisals & comments appreciated.

    Some domain hack sales I have found:
    Blo.gs - Sold to Yahoo, rumours say it sold $5 million as a website
    Foru.ms - Sold for $7,000
    Wi.Fi - Sold for $30,000

    my I ask you why are you investing so much in hack domains?
    and where do you register .as domains?

    I have also come across a few more domain hack sales:

    Christm.as - $900 - Sedo
    Virus.es - $2,660 - Sedo
    Languag.es - $1,353 - Sedo

    It's a bit of a fetish I have ;)

    The real reason I do it is for resale down the track or I might get them developed. If you target high quality names that in the .com that would be worth in the high $xx,xxx to $xxx,xxx range, then you can't go wrong IMO. As far as the reg & renewal fees of that ccTLD is reasonable, nothing like the .ki extention ($1k/year!!!). But you have to be very selective in what you reg. I've seen many people reg hacks that aren't good at all.

    I reg it directly with the .as registry, Nic.as

    I have also come across a few more domain hack sales:

    Christm.as - $900 - Sedo
    Virus.es - $2,660 - Sedo
    Languag.es - $1,353 - Sedo
