Re: [nznog] .co.nz Domains

Don't forget that the $30 buys not only DNS delegation, but also an entry in a title registry that doesn't subject you to a US-style "anyone with enough money to buy a lawyer can DRP you and steal your domain", but rather gives you a single, real person (Debbie Monahan) to talk to about such problems without spending any lawyer-money at all.

I do agree though that for those of us who manage their own servers and services $30+ a year seems steep for a simple dns name registration, although the costs/options have come down since a few years ago.
