I have been going back and forth with a person on registering certain names. His preference seems to be city-widgets.tld even in those cases where the citywidgets.tld is avail.

In USA, as far as I know it's preferred not to have the -, if possible. is it seen differently in Europe or is this a unique case? Long term and for branding purposes I think without the dash wins but I'm curious anyway.
