This is pysically no different than any of the other alternative roots that have popped up in the past (quite a few of them are still around I believe). Just that new.net has actually come to agreements with several large ISP's (earthlink, netzero, [email protected]) for their domains to be reachable through them (at least that's how I read their website). This gives them access to a large subscriber base. I believe they are hoping by having market penetration, thus generating interest and usage, that they will give other ISP's no choice but to eventually join the new.net crowd, or lose customers.
