I'd guess more like 150 to 300 per year.
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Oh wow, it's way cheaper than I thought.

Yeah, getting the domain isn't that expensive, it's the hosting that costs. Having the .net, .biz, etc. just makes sure that other businesses aren't confused with yours.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, there are always sales on. And since the majority of them aren't hosted, just forwarded, there's no ongoing monthly expense, just the annual domain registrar fees.
Okay, I checked. It's 12 (I gave up one set), for which I pay $120/year. Then I have a couple of hushmail accounts strung off of one of those, for $48/year or so. And two active hosting accounts, both of which are donated for the non-profit, but which used to be about $9 a month.
So total over the course of the year it was around $276.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think I have four domain names hosting some content or another. Only one of which goes towards profit. I used to squat like nobody's business--every time a phrase sounded cool, I'd register it. If I'd been savvier, maybe I could have made money off it. But thevelvetedge.com is the only one anyone's tried to buy off me, and it's not going anywhere.

I've rented The Doctor Who episode but I can't see anything. The iTunes player says it;s playing but I have a blank screen and no sound. What am I doing wrong?
I keep being asked to "authorize" the computer, but then I get a message saying it is already authorized.

quester, have you upgraded your iTunes version since the last time you bought/rented any video? Steph L. "Buffistechnology 3: "Press Some Buttons, See What Happens."" Apr 17, 2011 1:57:44 pm PDT
t edit It's a known issue that happens after upgrading -- the post I linked you to has a link to an Apple discussion about it, and suggestion for contacting Apple.

I just updated it a couple of days ago. I have't tried to watch anything for several months.
