The business account is $30 more, which is normal (presumably goes to better support, no word on improved upload/ratios?). But I will say it is a little odd that it doesn't ship with at least one static IP. Plus $30 per IP is kind of crazy.

Most host providers, even REALLY inexpensive ones, charge $3-5/month/IP. So I consider $20-30 a massive markup for something pretty useful for a business account.

I was just quoted $20/mo for 5 static ip's from Frontier, 4 years ago it was $10/mo from Comcast. At this point I think it's the lack of IPv4 addresses hitting home. Hilariously neither vendor can speak to their IPv6 roll-out.
