I think that most people won't have a problem with any domain registrar as long as the price is decent, they don't cause any problems, and DNS management is sufficient.

I personally use 1and1 for all my domains, but it's just because of the above reasons.

When I feel i need a little more DNS zone magic, i set Amazon Route 53 as the nameservers and configure it there as needed.

It's all dandy til it's not. And some companies really screw you over when it's not.

Price should be the LAST concern on something like a domain name. Considering the difference is a few dollars and most people don't register more than a couple, it SHOULD be a non issue.
