People who need them on short notice often pay more. The rent AWS collects on their IPv4s also pays that off in a year, I think.

How much does Amazon charge? I pay about 50 Euro cents a month to Hetzner for mine.

I've tried running web servers as pure IPv6 plays, which I would happily, happily prefer. It is just not possible. Even things I'm convinced will work, like cellphones, which are mostly IPv6 these days, won't connect.

AWS charges $0.005 per IP per hour. Multiplied by 8760 hours, you get about $44/year at 100% utilization.
