I told them that I had read assertions that this was some rambling by a blogger.

They assured me that not only do they stand by their comment but all contracts with them insist that their client uses a dedicated IP.

They do not sell hosting, they are not an affiliate. They have nothing to gain by insisting on dedicated IP's. Yet if you want to use their service you must have a dedicated IP, or go elsewhere.
