What is a dot TV Domain?
A Country Code Top Level Domain (ccTLD) extension represents a country such as .us for the USA or .ca for Canada. Other ccTLD's are being adopted for their familiar meanings such as .fm and .tv
Technically the extension .tv represents the island nation of Tuvalu, however it's popular use as an acronym for 'television' has given it life as a popular domain extension for entertainment and broadcast websites featuring rich video content.
TV Trends
On December 14, 2006, VeriSign announced an alliance with Demand Media, run by ex-MySpace chairman Richard Rosenblatt to market the .tv Top Level Domain Name (TLD) as the preferred web address for rich media content.

Register a .TV Domain Name
The best keyword TV domains are mostly spoken for and can be found on the aftermarket at sites such as eBay however many good brandable.tv names are still available for fresh registration.Unlike some country code extensions .TV domains are available for anyone to register. They are slightly more expensive then .com or .net in most cases running about $30 per year.
I recommend GoDaddy as an established trusted registrar. GoDaddy is currently having a .tv sale at time of this writing for $17.99 per year!

DotTV says:
With the transition to Digital Television Broadcasting Signals, the Internet Television Merger almost complete, and technological shifts in gadgets and website design (content management systems)--soon ?Television? as we know it will be 100% customized and interactive. Many popular televisions are already infused with Bluetooth, soon to have Web Browsers and Web 2.0/3.0 features, and TELEVISION SIGNALS will be originating from Dot TV Channels (.tv domains). ?Genius? is to know today what will be commonplace tomorrow. The Dot TV Golden Age is upon us and since 2006 Unity 4 Humanity, Inc. is largely responsible for defining, pioneering, and structuring the world of Dot TV.
