Your comment makes no sense. No one is passing around IP addresses by hand. It sounds like you have not heard of dynamic DNS, and don't understand how P2P software works.

Can you please learn how basic networking works before posting on the topic of IPv6?

Of course I know how DNS and dynamic DNS work.

This comment is suggesting that dynamic DNS companies would go under because of IPv6, which is absurd.

Can you please learn how to read before jumping to conclusions? It's fairly easy, I promise.
