Thats the reason I put xname.org as primary DNS server for my domains. 
This is a free service and allows me to easily switch between cheap 
hosting providers(I have 2 of them and pay around $5 per month each). In 
the last 2 years or so there was 1 major DDOS attack on xname.org which 
took it down for a couple of days. Apart from that service has been great.
