Sounds like a failure of imagination to me.
The statement Michael forgot was "using PI space" - lots of "Bob's bait & tackle shop" types of operations use BGP to announce a /24 to two providers. I have yet to find an organization which is concerned about getting new PI space which would have a problem paying that amount per year. They may exist, but they're certainly not the majority of the groups looking for PI IP. David Barak Need Geek Rock?
