I actually tend to doubt it. All of the people I've talked to from the major
operators have said that the charges in IPv4 were not a revenue source, they
were an effort to discourage the consumption of the addresses and/or the use
of static addresses and to try and recover the costs of dealing with them in
cases where customers were willing to pay.

Not jumping into the turd chunkin' contest, but this is not my experience.
The suits definitely want the money for income stream; small as it may be.
I'd like to hear from others if their experiences are different.
