I saw and still see people complaining about service interrupts and my connection is still good as never during these periods of complaining.  Look deeply to these occasions I noticed that there were no problem with connections but problems with DNS. A normal user does not know how to distinguish between a DNS or a connection problem. During these DNS down periods my connection performs very very well since there is almost no traffic in the ISP backbone due to DNS problem, however I still can navigate since I use OpenDNS. Based on my observations I can guess few clients use alternative DNS servers over ISP suggested ones. I spread the word of use another DNS server because as you wisely said: "I prefer to use DNS from someone who sees it as a primary function"

I have three hosted servers that are the domain masters for a few of my domains and some customers too, I use these and with a local caching server, they work quickly and if there is a problem I know who to blame ;-)

The gripes I hear about my ISP are always DNS, DHCP & NAT with their supplied router, all three are services I never use so I never have the problems.
