that's because they have plenty of v4 space, which is now a competitive advantage. have you tried to get even a /24 lately? pay up, sucker. bitspace is now a market with exponential returns.
it's the ultimate barrier to entry. the faster they move on it, the less of a barrier it will be to the competition. so why should they?
welcome to the new microsoft. except this time, we're all eating it up and loving it for some reason (that's another post...)

Depends where you are. Maybe it's hard to get a range from ARIN, but we got a /23 from APNIC not one month ago for ~1k/yr. That is peanuts, and was not too difficult to quality for eligibility either.
