Dynu Dynamic DNS vs No-IP Comments
Taylor HenselNo monthly check-in. Provides multiple DNS records even for free third level domains. SRV record is especially useful for me.
Neal ColgrassProvides all the features that No-IP offers but for less hassle and a cheaper price.

This is a service that rides on top of "no-ip"; doesn't replace ni-ip (in fact, it will announce to "no-ip". Irony)

Alviy vs No-IP Comments
It's free forever and similar to DuckDNS. Both are better than No-IP for me

Bailed on No-Ip.com as it's too big a pain -- major Captcha puzzle x2 each month. (Used to do no-ip paid, but price is now $25 instead of $14.) DuckDNS seems to do the job fine and it's no-nag free (for now).
