Enduser ISP's will always charge for extra IP space as it's currently not customary to give an enduser more than 1 IP.
Varies per service provider. My home ISP, for example, provides 2 static addresses for the package I purchased. I frequently heard of ISPs allocating /24s to customers, although that was a while back.
Also IPv4 is a becoming a 'scarce' resource.
Of course, IANA just 'found' another 350 million unused addresses...
You might also realize that the current TLA policy for RIR's demands that you have 200 prospect clients. That is 200x /48. Aka 200 endusers on DSL will suffice for them.
For those interested in address allocation policy, I might suggest participating in the RIR public policy mailing lists and meetings ([EMAIL PROTECTED] and the upcoming Memphis meeting for those in the ARIN region).
