You really can't compare EdgeDirector's network to UltraDNS which is
much larger and more resilient by leaps and bounds. I've spoke with
the owner of ED before and decided against using the service. Right
now we're using Afilias and the price isn't much worse, the GUI is
much nicer, and the network is much larger and more redundant.

We recently walked out on an UltraDNS contract due to deceptive
billing practices. They're a corrupt company, imho.

They seem to be way way cheaper than ultradns, esp when you adding in
geo-ip
load sharing and such. So is there wnay reason WHY its cheaper?

can't see any info on the Afilias web site on them doing stuff with GNS type
solutions - maybe I should do something odd like talk
 to them ;-)
