I noticed just this morning that Comcast had switched cable modem to be IPV6 only. Last week it was IPV4. There have been a couple of outages lately so I've occasionally been pinging google.com to see if my connection is up. Last week it pinged an IPV4 address, today it's IPV6.

As a consumer of the internets, is there any 'tangible' benefit I can hope to see with IPV6 from my service provider?
