the best way to debunk the 'myth' would be to find some

let me see now how about content, lets do some AAAA lookups:

Google - no
Microsoft - no
Yahoo - no
YouTube - no
Facebook - no

well, maybe that'll follow.. lets look for a v6 provider here in the UK:

VirginMedia cable - no
BT ADSL - no
Pipex ADSL - no
Tiscali ADSL - no
Talktalk ADSL - no

I see some carriers can provide me v6 transit or peering, typically  
its bundled with their v4 offerings or at a reduced rate but other  
than being part of the 'v6 backbone' what exactly can i get to?

Given the above, I think there is no myth.. !
