Pardon my ignorance, but doesn't nic.ru already make money for each .ru domain that is registered?
Much like Verisign makes money for each .com/.net and Affilias makes money for each .name/.org that is registered?
Isn't the whole point of running a registry that you also get to collect some sort of fee for running the service?
Which is why a lot of Russians don't use .ru domains. But Namecheap throws them out anyway.
