The really neat thing is that you can do this with any nameserver. Install N nameservers and connect each of them to one of your ISPs. These nameservers are all masters, and all contain different data.
If you have several nameservers all pretending to be masters for some zone but offering different responses based on IP locality, predictive performance, or any other criteria, then the name for this is: "broken."
