Something you guys should realize about IPs. There are a limited number of IPs in the world, and right now a group named ARIN decides who gets IPs, and makes the rules up for using IPs. Using 100 IPs on one webserver, is a blatent violation of ARINs policies. A couple of years back Exodus (who you guys should know was the largest host at the time) use to give our IPs to their customers whenever customers asked for them. ARIN actually removed the rights for Exodus to get any more IPs for violation of their rules. If a large host can't get new IPs, it could defintely happen to a small host.
