In Oz it costs real money to get IPv6 address space from the RIR
(APNIC). Around AUD$6K in the first year, around AUD$1100 each year
thereafter.

Your /48, according to the ARIN website, cost you US$625 this year, will
cost US$937.50 next year, and $1250 every year thereafter.

Fairly trivial amounts for most commercial entities, but prohibitive for
all but the most enthusiastic home user.
