As I understand it, if they got a document signed by their origination provider granting them authorization to do CNAM hosting on their own numbers, they could then hire someone such as Verisign to host their CNAM records in the so-called "PSTN database." They'd even profit from this assuming they have enough subscribers. There are probably several reasons for why they don't do this, possibly starting with administrative overhead and/or their provider is not willing to relinquish control of the records. If someone has experience with this, feel free to correct me. However, this is my understanding from my previous experience with looking up Caller Name information via CNAM/LIDB/SS7.
