IPv6 is the right answer,

Wrong.

IPv6 is not operational, which is partly why most service
providers refuse it.

For example, to purposelessly enable multicast PMTUD, RFC2463
(ICMPv6) mandates routers generate ICMPv6 packet too big
against multicast packets, which causes ICMPv6 packet
implosions, which is not operational.

For further details, see my presentation at the last APNIC:
