Re: AAAA's for www.netflix.com

[Joly MacFie <joly () punkcast com>]

well, something appears to be working..

http://www.betterbroadbandblog.com/2012/06/world-ipv6-daywe-have-liftoff/

Netflix moved up to second in the IPv6 list – as noted above, Netflix has
been rolling out IPv6 coverage over the last few weeks.  Interestingly, it
appears as if Netflix may have created its own IPv6-specific domain which
is responsible for almost a third of all IPv6 traffic. If this is the case
it might not be in full compliance with the spirit of World IPv6 Day, as
the aim should have been for Netflix to operate one single domain with both
AAAA records for IPv6 and A records for IPv4.
