Cogent is great if you treat them as a path. I wouldn't use Cogent in place
of single homing a service provider though due to how they run their
network and the subsequent peering disputes that arise. Don't get me wrong,
I like Cogent, they definitely have a good use case, just be cognizant of
how they run their business model / network.

Hardly something to hold against them until the rest of us can all get
our own houses in order...

It's worth pointing out that many IPv6 networks are unavailable from
Cogent; so, effectively, in 2013, you still can't get IPv6
connectivity from Cogent.
