It differs from .com and .co.uk addresses in that IP addresses are stored on the domain name server (DNS) rather than on web servers

I still don't understand this hype, Can someone enlighten me?

Are IP addresses not stored in the DNS for .co.uk domains?

I know your not suppose to reply in this section but someone already as so ner
