 "you can tell your TLD"

but there are lots of low cost domains where its not possible/feasable to "tell 
your TLD" or to change provider.....

There are many reason for this - DNS is much cheaper in bandwidth than HTTP, 
faster, and a protocol that required HTTP lookup would not be successful for 
many reasons.

If you're looking for a low cost DNS solution, consider to create your own DNS 
server on your computer at home and let a free service like 
http://www.gratisdns.dk/ be backup for your primary DNS host. After that, you 
can tell your TLD that the 5 nameservers from gratisdns are the DNS servers to 
look up at, and this way your own server will not be loaded by DNS requests. 
The costs of doing this: $0 if your computer at home is online on the same IP 
address all the time (that's how dybdahl.dk works).

The free and cheap nameserver providers will suppor TXT records eventually - 
most I've talked to are planning for it right now, and then you can do it for 
free online without any big problems.

Hi,
I was wondering if SPF could be used by Domain owners which dont have access to 
to their DNS Servers.
Why is publishing sticking so strictly to DNS? If http publishing would be 
allowed as well lots of lowcost Domain owners would be able to publish their 
records.
Stefan
