Block of "Public" IPs -- arin.net ?
I am switching ISPs and no longer want to continue changing my internal webserver/etc to new IP addresses my ISPs provide.
How can I easily get a block of 10+ IPs from arin.net or someone else without paying a lot ?

If you don't want to change your IP then you need:
a. At least /24 = 256 IP ( Less than /24 Block is not acceptable by most provider for BGP )
b. Your own ASN (Autonomous Number)
ASN is needed for BGP routing. Because BGP allows you to update your internal IP worldwide not a matter you change your Provider/ISP.
If you plan to have your own IP then contact ARIN. You have to pay for IP and ASN yearly.
