The business case of about 80% of the ISP's is Pr0n & W4R3z (or what
spelling is 'in' this year?)

But.... it is not illegal to make adverts for say "Downloading the
newest movies over a cool 8mbit DSL line". But downloading it itself is
of course. Might be analogous to providing a busservice to the crack
dealers mansion.

In short.... when those porn providers join the boat with the warez
providers IPv6 will have a lot more traffic for sure.

Operational part: most (all?) of the IETF servers don't support IPv6,
guess where they are located ;)
