J.R.,

If it makes you feel any better, you're both getting about $8000 worth
of service for that $100. The service isn't from ARIN, but its enabled
by ARIN's recognition of your address block and is above and beyond
the service you could get connecting to the Internet with your ISP's
IP addresses.
