The advantage with Route 53 is really when you are already using AWS stuff. At that point sure it costs a bit more (but still less than the amount of change that I lose in my sofa in the same period of time), but it's the same place as everything else. Same bill and stuff.

Using just AWS Route 53 'standalone' probably doesn't make much sense, but when used in combination with EC2 and their Elastic Load Balancer it starts to make a lot of sense. And the fact that you can use their APIs to make programmatic changes (say quickly change a A or CNAME record to point elsewhere) is fantastic.
