Who's your registrar?
Maybe I just didn't find the right one.
My dad. He is a former network manager at Microsoft, and takes care of a variety of domains for family, friends, and supported organizations.
To be clear, that $15ish is JUST for the domain- and NOT for any hosting... altho the hosting for my .com is on a Mac Mini in the corner of my office, and the .audio is a redirect on one of his computers, I think, so it ends up at the same place.
Either way. We're upset that the registrar is increasing their prices like 20% -- but it'll still be under $20ish per year. He's still looking around for a new registrar.
Lemme know if you want to have him handle your domains. ;-)
