-> That, is utter nonsense. The well of the IPv4 addresses ran dry years ago. It -> isn't like oil, they are not burned, so what was there will still be there next
The provider that I worked for was very smart they never turned full ownership of the IP's over to the companies that they provided to. As they issue IPV6's they reclaim the IPV4's to use in other places... so yes they are reclaiming them at a sufficient rate.
I also hate to admit that the US has "hogged" the majority of the IPV4 IP Space... I do know that for a fact as my employer merged with several others gobbling up quite a bit of the share.
Between Level 3 and AT&T there is a veritable wealth of IPV4's.
-> addresses, the going rate is about EUR 10 per address. The incumbents stiil -> have some on stock, but for new starting companies it is prohibitively -> expensive to get IPv4 space.
That is where it gets UGLY... the poor smaller providers or the new startups. I know that one major cable company has been combining their IP Blocks to make larger blocks of IPs often taking companies that have a smaller block of 5 ip's and forcing IP reassignment (of course they give them MONTHS of free service to compensate) to cobble together a larger block for a bigger client on the fiber side.
I know the struggle well... but there are big fish that have gobbled up the ipv4's and they do treat them as gold... or bitcoins if you will.
Thanks for the Birthday wishes... not been very happy in all this heat... plus my Dad died on my birthday last year... I could do without any of the fuss at all.
