    not really.

    tasting is buying and testing. kiting is buying and dropping and buying again to avoid paying the fee of ownership.

    That makes no sense...

    you buy then drop, then buy again? then you dont pay domain fees?

    how does that work?

    domain tasting done over and over. you have to pay fees to taste to registrars and they have to float the expected reg volume to the registry too, so there is *some* cost.
