The only problem with dynamic IPs is for the user if they want to run a server on their machine, but you can get around that by using a service such as dyndns which gives you a special address to use to connect to your machine, and is updated with your new IP each time you reconnect.

Why are they a more convenient way to run a network? There is no factual backing for that claim! If anything, a dynamic ip is a disadvantage.
