Or in the case of broadband users from request-to-request.

I've been in six different major cities here, and in every one, the
cable company gives you an RFC-1918 addresses and run a cadre of proxy
servers.  

Where I am now, to get a "real" IP address from Megacable would cost
me 70EUR per month above and beyond the regular price.

Imagine a million users behind a block of 48 IP addresses.
