This was a relatively attractive option several years ago, when bgp-capable routers were expensive enough to limit their practical availability to large-ish companies. Considering the current pricing on proven BGP-capable routers (i.e., with careful prefix filtering, even a 26xx can take full routes from a few peers/upstreams), what's the point of this method now?
Conservation of AS numbers. However, looking at the CIDR report, there seem to be plenty of those left for now. IP addresses don't seem to be a problem for now either. So that leaves the real issue as routing table explosion - if a large number of enterprises decide they need to multihome to different AS's.
