off-net resolvers means that your continued customer satisfaction (and therefore your continued reliable cash-flow) is completely dependent on maintaining a good working relationship between your company and the company which operates the resolvers. If - for whatever reason - they decide to shut off services to your customers, your business will take a serious impact.
