  Microsoft Pays For Old-Style Net Addresses
Time: 11:43 EST/16:43 GMT | News Source: Wall Street Journal | Posted By: Andi Stabryla

The slow death of IPv4 is something we have covered here on Tech Europe. In a nutshell the internet is running out of addresses. Now before running to the hills, it is okay—there is plan B; IPv6.

However it comes as no surprise to read that the few remaining IPv4 addresses are commanding something of a premium.

Microsoft has bought a block of IP addresses at a cost of $11.25 each – more than the price of an average .com domain name – in the first sign of panic buying as IPv4 addresses run out.
