    Yours is not unpopular.

    I wouldn't mind a 100 bucks (for renewal) .com domain.

    Where do you think small businesses get their servers, software etc.. from? Other small businesses? :D

    Are people actually outraged over something that cost 0.69 cents per month? ...

    Why not?

    This is a low end place. We've seen a dude writing a book to complain when his host took 0.21 cents from his refund.

    Some hosts in the past and probably present makes some tens of cents per a client also.

    0.69 cents increase is HUGE! in ... several ways.

    It's actually 54 cents increase... 4 additional cents per month...

    Hoarding domains and letting idle a server is pretty comparable imo.
    It's still a shame there's so many parked domains.

    The price used to be $50 a year or more. That didn't stop hoarding.
