Julie188 writes "Experts keep screaming that the IPv4 sky is falling. Three such experts were recently asked point blank to state an irrefutable business case for moving to IPv6 now and their answer was more plausible than the old excuse (the lack of addresses and a yet-to-be-seen killer IPv6 app). They said that there isn't a business case. No company that is satisfied with all of its Internet services will need to move, even in the next few years. They also pointed out that Microsoft is a unique position in the industry both causing adoption through its IPv6 support in its OSes and hindering adoption by not extending IPv6 support into very many of its apps. (That's classic for Microsoft, aye?)"
