Re:Ask HN: Which DNS service/s outside of AWS to use? by davidgerard on Tuesday October 30, 2012 @09:41AM (#4717289)
The unbelievably terrible interface was a major factor in us moving our stuff from Netnames to Amazon.

Amazon Route53 is just ridiculously easy to use. Also, machine-controllable. Not as good as shadow primary, but second-best option and saves us so much frustration just doing stuff.

Though if there were someone who was as non-sucky to use as Amazon, I'd be interested too.

If you really want AXFR check out Route53d http://code.google.com/p/route53d/. Acts as an AXFR to route53 API proxy. The route 53 sample code also has import/export to bind zone file format.
