I use InMotion hosting and they are great.

Sometimes the hosting providers charge a fee to do the registration themselves so it can be less expensive to do it yourself. Also some providers do not register you as the technical owner, so if you change providers you have to go through the extra hassle of having the provider transfer the technical role management of the domain to you. Not saying that they all do this, but it does happen pretty frequently.
Also, my list is not in any particular order of importance or anything else. Just random stream of conciousness...
