Probably had a firesale to cover the costs of poor performing New Gtlds

Maybe but isn't eNom the preferred domain reseller for WHMCS so this acquisition hopefully doesn't change anything. I don't want to see yet another thing hollowed out like hostgator.

They've just sold a business generating 80% of their revenue to focus on something generating 5% of revenue. This company will be even more down the toilet than before. Look for a massive blowout in losses in a years time.

What did they sell?

What did they sell?

Enom, half of namejet etc. I'm talking from Rightside's perspective with those comments.

Regarding Tucows I suspect they have bought at a very good price. It is a well run company (as compared to Rightside which is a basket case)

Cool, thanks.
