I _wouldn't_ discourage registration.  That's the point.

So exactly _how_ would you keep millions of people from registering domain
names? Even if it _weren't_ free (I'll argue that another time), you'd
still have tons of people (I'll generalize, and assume they're high school
students that couldn't afford the $100) that would be signing up for domain
registration because they're going though a cheap ISP.

Gee, the horror.  Affordable Internet services.
