Entertainment industry giants want special rules for any new top-level
domain names (gTLDs) involving their industries

http://j.mp/wn4Le7  (Domain Incite)

  "Twenty members of the movie, music and games businesses have asked
   ICANN to impose strict anti-piracy rules on new top-level domains
   related to their industries.
   ...
   It goes on to make seven demands for regulations covering Whois
   accuracy, enforced anti-piracy policies, and private requests for
   domain name take-downs."
