No, it may just be me, but it doesn't seem right to charge people more for 
what is effectively less.  Also how would you justify charging more as a 
consumer I'm not getting more bandwidth nor do I get anything. If I get 
hacked I would think I could get hacked on a standard port just as easily 
as on a non-standard port. Just my opinion though.
