What's to say that .COM isn't already playing second fiddle to another domain? For example, for a UK based organisation dealing predominantly in the UK, I'll happily take, or recommend to my Client, a .CO.UK domain over a .COM any day of the week. That's not to say I won't recommend they purchase the .COM varient also, but in such cases, I'll recommend the .CO.UK as a primary domain each time.

I suspect in many cases, where a business trades primarily in one country, there's greater value to be had with their respective TLD, ie. a French business using the .FR domain as their primary.

There ends my two penneth.
