The company established Radix to serve as the applicant and eventual registry operator for all the proposed 31 gTLDs, which are: .web, .shop, .bank, .law, .music, .news, .blog, .movie, .baby, .store, .doctor, .hotel, .play, .home, .site, .website, .click, .online, .one, .ping, .space, .world, .press, .chat, .city, .deals, .insurance, .loans, .app, .host and .hosting, while Directi's traditional operations retain registry services by Bigrock and PDR Ltd.〔 (http://www.thedomains.com/2012/05/31/directi-invest-over-30-million-applies-for-31-new-gtlds-including-law-web-bank-shop/ )〕 Directi CEO Bhavin Turakhia anticipated string contention on the domain name strings. He said that his company is open to strategic partnerships with other parties. He said, "I expect there to be contention in all of them. Whether they will end up going to auction… we're completely open to strategic partnerships with other industry players who we believe can add value and join hands with us, based on merit. We'll be evaluating this on a case by case basis."〔(Directi expects all 31 of its gTLDs to be contested )〕 When a user tries to register one of these domains through a website, mostly their own group companies then they show some price and upon proceeding with registration they make it a premium domain and shows a hefty price tag making the registration impossible. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Directi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
