I'd rather actually make sure the resources are still in active use for something someone considers a useful purpose. A fee which also helps defray the costs of those annual pings and records maintenance is not a bad idea. Otherwise, someone somewhere is subsidizing all that ULA registration. I don't see any reason ULA shouldn't pay its own way.
