DNS CNAME round robin alternatives

I understand that CNAME records do not work for round robin purposes in the
version 8 of bind and that is because it is following the RFC requirements.
I was wondering if there are other ways through DNS to serve this purpose
or if you have to switch to a product that is designed to load balance
based on resources.  I am just starting to look at those options, but was
hoping to find out what other people are doing.

Thank you,
Kathleen
