what difference does it make if it is a fixed IP or a long lease? either
way I am always occupying an IP address, may as well be a fixed one.
You obviously know nothing about economics. :-)
The reason they charge more for a fixed IP is the same reason dogs leak their
genitals: because they can. Or to put it in "economic" terms: because people
are willing to pay extra for it. It has nothing to do with the their cost.
This is possible- on the other hand they might be running out of static
IP's to give out. Either way, the real question is do any other ISP's
even offer static IP's and if so, for how much?
