I'm just wondering how that differs from ANY OTHER NETWORK on the 
Internet?  Do you have a lot of providers coming to you offering terms 
which are not financially beneficial to them?  Have you never had 
someone ask to buy you out?

These are not material to the discussion at hand, IMHO.  Just 'cause I 
want to buy your biz and/or want to charge you lots of money does not 
mean you should get to keep your IP space.  NAC honored the contract in 
place until it expired - and was not renewed _at the customer's 
request_.  Why does what NAC wants to charge after the current contract 
expired matter?
