If you're up for the task, I've wanted to write a script (POSIX /bin/sh certainly) for interaction with DNS providers. Basically lower the entry barrier, and avoid the web interface: $ foo mydomain.org --init ovh

You're just paying some extra third-party that handles all your traffic now. What's to prevent them from doing the same? You're moving trust to another actor.
