<div>It's should be a TCO argument: building
something with more forethought means you can
avoid costs that you will incur later on in the
life of the asset.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>With IPv4 vs IPv6 we need to get more scale
deployment in order to reduce the overall costs we
will all incur later. It's all a question of how
probable the possibilities are and balancing the
risk against the cost, taking into account all the
various affects...<br>

The majority of what we do on networks are
electronic analogues of what we do "IRL" -
the names of the applications are a give
away e.g., eMAIL, video CONFERENCING etc.
The majority of human communications is
unicast or bidirectional, which is why
unicast style applications are the dominant
ones. The entertainment industry might be
glamorous, but it pales compared to the
revenue of the telecommunications industry. </blockquote>

<div>The way we consume media is evolving, and
the entertainment industry will eventually be
dragged, kicking, screaming, biting and
spitting, along with us.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Despite what some people think, there isn't
sufficient bandwidth in the air to support the
continued growth of media consumption,
particularly on demand - that's where things
like the NBN with its existing and potential
bandwidth potentials actually matter for the
future.</div>

<div>While I am again one of the biggest fans of
multicast, the fact is that it is complex, and it
was conceived with broadcast equivalence largely
in mind: what we have today are lots of pockets of
users watching niche content, rather than large
scale consumption. Except, perhaps, for the
cricket when 19yos save the day for struggling
nations. I'm sure there's a tool out there for
traffic modelling that we all need which would
magically calculate when to swap from a unicast to
a multicast model by IP address/domain!<br>
