Registrars serve no useful purpose

It is a matter of choosing a registrar that has the right business model and services to suit the registrant.
What if a company doesn't want to deal with any registrar? What if they just want to register their domain name and have it stay registered. For some companies, their registered domain name is a critical part of their network infrastructure. Why should these companies be forced to deal with third parties who add no value to the service? There is no free market when ICANN forces companies to deal with 3rd parties rather than deal directly with the registry that provides the mission critical DNS service for their domain name. Perhaps this is another area where a membership-based NANOG could help by standing up and explaining the operational importance of DNS stability to the bureaucrats in ICANN. --Michael Dillon
