Yes, you need IPv4, but you'd don't need *more* IPv4. At least not more as you can legally receive from RIPE without cheating. Techniques like 6to4, CGN etc. exist ... for a business to survive, it actually is enough to rollout these things... But I agree - and see it almost daily with my customers - in a lot of heads rolling out V6 and using the mentioned things ends in: "we fear to rollout V6, it is working with V4 so we don't want to spend time to test if V6 is working properly" ... and then, one day and as unforseeable as Christmas coming end of December, they discover they'd need more V4 to grow but can't get and suddenly they need to hurry, they make mistakes in implementing as they are in hurry and they shout out "you see, IPv6 integration is bullshit" only because they forgot some config-changes.
