Mostly because if the provider for .COM goes down, so does our DNS record still points to its IP address. That and this way we can own the other common name with MPL so that users aren't being tricked into another site...etc

how come there's different domains for mirrors? according to all the movies i've seen, if you have mirrored sites you'll usually do it with 3rd level domains like so:
<br/><a href="http://www.mplayerlive.com" target="_blank">www.mplayerlive.com</a> can redirect to itself or another mirror under the same domain depending on loads - or round robin DNS:
<br/>www2.mplayerlive.com
<br/>www3.mplayerlive.com and so on...
<br/>that way you don't split search engine rankings between two different domains and it makes it easier to manage. And if you really wanted to do it full assed then <a href="http://www.mplayerlive.com" target="_blank">www.mplayerlive.com</a> could have multiple mirrors running behind the same URL.
<br/>
<br/>just my 3 cents
