Very easy. In the Internet the equivalent of phone numers, the DNS names are alleady portable - so you can easily switch ISP and keep your email address and URLs without renumbering.
Imagine you are a hosting provider with, say, 10000 sites (domains), 3000 of them is even not under your control. You have 10 servers to host them (i.e. you need 10 IPs). Changing ISP is really easy? To be a LIR and grab /20 if really need only /28? -- WBR, Max Tulyev (MT6561-RIPE, 2:463/253@FIDO)
