I'm really curious about this argument. Could you please elaborate further why this should be a problem? Usage based billing is very much common for almost every service. Just bill a base fee (might include some training, ...), XXX EUR per /24 Ipv4, XXX EUR per /32 Ipv6 and XXX EUR per AS, XXX EUR per ... Changes are very high that this would lead to a quick return of lots of Ipv4 addresses, if the price for Ipv4 is high enough. As a nice side effect the fees would be much fairer distributed among the members. Thanks Corin
