This is not true.

Linode allow you to attach additional IPs to your Linode at $1/month, for example, I have one Linode which has 6 IPs attached for only $25/month. I still can't find a company has this kind of flexibility.

Bytemark, based in the UK, with their cloud product Bigv (http://bigv.io/)

Right, but they provide additional IP addresses only if you can provide evidence that you need them (e.g., SSL certs).

Don't almost all web servers/browsers use SNI now? I don't see why you'd need multiple IPs for running multiple SSL sites nowadays. I have done multiple SSL sites on one IP for years.

IE on XP and Android 2.x are the notable things that don't support SNI. Some people still care about these.

what are the range of ip addresses like? are they just like
