Do you have the "law" that states that you must have a unique IP
address?  What?  No Law?  What a totally LAME and BOGUS argument.
There are many good techincal reasons for each machine to have its own
IP address, just as there are many good technical reasons to properly
register the domain via the correct channels.

It is in numerous RFC's that you ****MUST**** get your domain
registered with the NIC, or their delegated representive.  In the case
of the .COM part of the tree, the NIC has not delegated that
authority, so you ****MUST**** register the name with them.  To think
otherwise is just flat out wrong.
