Wow! It must take really, really good technology to print as small as the printing on the back of the "this notice is not a bill" from Domain Registry of America (approximately 5,000 words... the length of a decent published short story or approximately 20 pages of your average novel manuscript). Simply amazing that the words "Domain Name Expiration Notice" and "Total Amount" are so HUGE in comparison... that along with the bright red, bold "You must provide your e-mail address to complete registration." One of the most interesting notes in the tiny print on the back of this "not a bill" is the statement that DRoA is not responsible to even validate that the domains they want to charge you $50 per year for are even available to be registered to you! They also happily reserve the right to provide your private information to any of their "service partners." For a notice that "is not a bill", it certainly looks like one. Enough to fool 90% of your average overworked accounts payable clerks. SeemsFree applauds DRoA (their acronym, not ours). With more companies like yours we wouldn't have to ever produce anything.
