Hmmm... lots of domain names look special when you see them in isolation,
but think of all the options:
linux-?music.(com|org|net)
linux-?sound.(com|org|net)
linux-?audio.(com|org|net)
music-?linux.(com|org|net)
...
l-a-[du].(com|org|net)
gnulinux-*.(com|org|net)
free-?software-*.(com|org|net)
...
this is one of hundreds of relevant sounding domain names, the chances of
someone picking it by change if they want to fond information are very
slim, they are far more likely to google.
But the problem is bigger than it might seem. Try to google for 'linux
music' 'linux audio' 'linux sound'. You'll get different results.
You
want find lad when searching for 'linux music'. You'll find
hidsquad.com.
The importance of a domain name is that it's relatively easy to guess.
And most of all, it's easy to remember.
