Yes - I read the ISP bit, not the end user bit.
It cost me $625 (or possibly less) one-time when I first got it.
That was with the waivers in force. It will soon cost a one-time US $1250. We could argue till the cows come home about what proportion of the population would consider that "prohibitive" but I'm guessing that even in the USA that's a heck of an entry fee, and that the vast majority of non-corporate end users will not be willing to pay it. Which is the actual point, rather than quibbling about the precise price.
That seems to be quite an argument against trying to get IPv6 GUA, or am I missing something? In my experience companies are often too cheap to even buy things like a software license, if the free product suffices. Often ignoring the hidden costs of dealing with a restricted free copy. So I'd say, that in my case, providing an internal IPv6 network for testing purposes, does not warrant getting GUAs. Even if it technically speaking is a "good thing", it's not likely to happen.
