Why is static IP so expensive?

[Ronstang]

I have a static IP and it doesn't cost me any extra. It is not like I asked for it but I have had the same IP for over 2 years.

Doesn't do you any good if your domain points to one address one day and another the next.

That's why you get a dynamic DNS updating program.

there's only so many possible ip address's. high demand and limited availability makes the price high.
