I'm living in Germany and without IPv6 -- and there exists nothing
interesting that isn't available thorugh IPv4.

And some of the equipment I have is IPv4-only, including a Sony LCD TV.

The vast majority of users in Germany are using IPv6 by accident or
ISP mischief, but certainly not because they wantet it or asked for it,
let alone needed it.

Right now, IPv6-only feels like you're in a desert.

We're still *FAR*AWAY* from being able to reach everything via IPv6,
while you can get everywhere just fine with IPv4-only.

So the day when IPv4-only feels like analog celluar is more like
two decades away.
