I'm speaking of the new upcoming gTLDs like for example: .business, .fashion, .mortage, .baseball, .movie, .coffee, .pizza, .fitness, .porn, .shopping, .dating, .academy, .club, .forum to name a few.

I think it will be the future of the internet domains, now we'll know much more about a site just from the domain (.App or .Music) it's time for a change... It may take some (A lot) of getting used to, but things must change.

I don't think so. The marketing dollars behind .com are huge and arguably a greater threat to domain names are apps and app stores.

For me it is just a huge cash grab for icann and others. Gosh, look at the pricing.
