Ed O’Brien, guitarist from the band Radiohead, is the latest musician expressing support for DotMusic’s community-based application for the new gTLD .music, reports Kevin Murphy from Domain Incite. “In a letter to ICANN today (pdf), O’Brien said that if DotMusic loses its ongoing Community Priority Evaluation, it will ‘be setting back the world’s chances of a Fair Trade Music Industry by many years’. ‘I challenge The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers views that the global music community to which I belong does not exist,’ he wrote. He’s arguably the highest-profile musician to support DotMusic to date.”
