[IPv4] may limit new Web-based services (i.e. SaaS, PaaS, and email) available to current Netizens, businesses, and governments. That might drive up the prices of these services and discourage innovation among their providers.

By comparison, limitless IP addresses can extend opportunities for communication, competition, and development to millions more people.
