Okay, full disclosure on what exactly I'm doing.

I don't want their domain names.

Every producer, session player and studio owner seems to have their own
domain and they _never_ remember to renew until after their DNS entry
goes away.

I work with these guys. I pay money to these guys. These guys take my
phone calls.

I want to be the white knight that calls them up and says, "hey, do you
realize you only have 48 hours to renew your domain name?" In some
cultures this would be called brownie points or something worse, but
hey, it's Hollywood.

If their domain does expire, nothing really bad will happen. No great
bodily harm will befall their great grandmothers. No chickens named
Little will be screaming to the falling skies as they run helter-skelter
about the barn yard.

But it's a brownie point.
