Same RDATA is not allowed by RFC 2181.

| 5. Resource Record Sets
|
|   Each DNS Resource Record (RR) has a label, class, type, and data.  It
|   is meaningless for two records to ever have label, class, type and
|   data all equal - servers should suppress such duplicates if
|   encountered.  It is however possible for most record types to exist
|   with the same label, class and type, but with different data.  Such a
|   group of records is hereby defined to be a Resource Record Set
|   (RRSet).

  RFC 6763 DNS-Based Service Discovery shows "_http._tcp" service usage.

  You can add many SRV RRs. (merge SRV RRs from multi-CDN).

  Softwares that support DNS-SD may support _http._tcp.
