From another perspective, it could be how Verisign
plans on making money off this.  If they can redirect
to their own Site Finder site, I'm sure they can
redirect to other large corporations, who would
probably pay for that kind of service.  Buy this
service, user types www.coke-soft-drink.com, and gets
redirected automatically to www.coke.com. 
Corporations now have a much broader reach then
yesterday.  They'd make a deal on the trademark thing,
if there is one.

Wouldn't it be easier (sheaper) to just buy the domain
www.coke-soft-drink.com? Or maybe you meant www.*coke*.com and
www.*soft-drink*.com would be redirected?
