[ARIN-consult] Fee Schedule Change Consultation

For every situation that I've been involved with over the last few years, both ISPs and end users, this change would appear to reduce the fees paid. Is this the desired effect?

Note: not a single one of the companies I worked with considered the ARIN registration fees onerous or balked about them. I am not certain that a fee reduction is necessary. I'd rather see ARIN spend the budget on improving the services.
