And...that's the point. If it were all that and a bowl of ice cream US networks would be tripping over each other to implement it. They aren't, mostly because there is no real hurry despite these "studies" and alarmist hype. It's more that, because we "got there first" and staked out huge swaths of the IPv4 address space, the US isn't in nearly as much danger of address space exhaustion that places like China were (prior to their IPv6 push).
