I think an important question would be what level of service are they buying. Including 255 address with a T3 would be very reasonable, less so with a T1, not very reasonable with DSL, and ridiculous with a dial-up account.
I must be missing something. Why would you expect need for IP addresses to correlate with bandwidth? I can see a company buying a DS3 for a single web/application server or load balancer. I can see an apartment building with 120 network jacks getting a T1. It may make business sense to bundle more 'free IPs' with packages that cost more money. But the actual allocation must be based upon demonstrated need. Read your agreement with ARIN. DS
