The reasons for IPv6 should be obvious by now, most importantly you are future proofing your service/product. Saying I don't need to deploy IPv6 is the same mentality that kept the world using Internet Explorer 6 for over half a decade, yes it works as is but it could be better.
Plus do you want to live in a world where something as basic as an IP address costs you an annual fee?
You'll also provide a faster service ahead of your competition:
To be honest, IPv6 isn't exactly hard for a lot of project. As buyers we just have to add it as a purchasing requirement. The real burden is on the ISPs and cloud providers.
that link is dead (403 - forbidden) but seems to address the differences between ipv4 and ipv6.
he was asking why you'd need ipv6 support for a CDN, which is mostly hosted by other people. you only reference it in your html code, once. so his question would probably still be unanswered, even if your link worked.
