SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 27 /PRNewswire/ — Minds + Machines, a leading registry services provider for new Top-Level Domains (TLDs), today announced that BRS Media, a diverse media e-commerce firm that helps media companies build brand influence on the Internet, has selected Minds + Machines to provide all technical services for the new .RADIO TLD.
In addition to providing critical registry services, Minds + Machines will guide dotRadio(TM) through ICANN’s intricate application process, which is required to create the .radio address. Minds + Machines specializes applying for and operating TLDs, providing registry software used by over 20 country-code TLDs.
“After reviewing all the options, the choice of Minds + Machines came easily,” said George T. Bundy, Chairman and CEO of BRS Media, Inc. “The deep experience of their staff, combined with their easy-to-use, field-tested software, made Minds + Machines the obvious choice. We are thrilled to be working with the most innovative company in the registry services industry.”
“BRS Media is an Internet legend,” said Antony Van Couvering, CEO of Minds + Machines. “They were pioneers in their field and today their name is synonymous with Internet radio. We could not be more pleased that they selected us. BRS Media’s recognized leadership in the Internet radio space, combined with our expertise in registry operations, means that .RADIO has a very bright future.”
The plan to launch .RADIO follows the decision by ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) to expand website and email addresses beyond the familiar .com, .net, .org and country-based extensions. Later this year, ICANN will for the first time accept applications for an unlimited number of new TLDs.
