Which one is easy to remember? Hyphen is being recognize by spiders.

Another reason to use hyphenated domain names is when two words joined together like in a domain name could imply or even state a different meaning or unintentional phrases.

The following is an example: <http://www.basketballshopping.com/>

www.basketballshopping.com could be read as basketball shopping or basketballs hopping, two completely different thoughts and contexts. Avoid confusing phrases altogether or use hyphens to separate the words.
YES! spider friendly...BUT is it user friendly?...for a normal users hyphenated

URL is really hard for them to remember..composed of 2 keywords(hyphenated

URL) is ok...but more than 3 is not good...
