Those with legacy IP4 space should have the equivalent IP6 space under the same terms. Or am I missing something?
If you don't have a contract with ARIN, why should ARIN provide you with anything?
Because ARIN is one of the guardians of Internet public policy and it is in the public's best interest for every individual private organization to spend the money and effort deploying IPv6 sooner rather than later, regardless of their individual relationships with ARIN. It's like government services for the elderly. Though today many are a net drain on society, they've mostly earned their place with past action and it's the decent and charitable thing to do for the folks who created the possibility of the lives we enjoy today.
