When we will be able to use Spotify without IPv4?
Noting your current status:
* Spotify uses Fastly for content distribution, and Fastly has IPv6 support: https://www.fastly.com/blog/ipv6-fastly
* Spotify has supported IPv6 on mobile for a while: https://labs.spotify.com/2015/11/05/oh-ipv6-where-art-thou/, which helps you with heavily v6-centric mobile networks and Apple's v6 requirements
Other large content providers report nontrivial amounts of IPv6: Google frequently serves more than 20% of content over IPv6, as does Facebook, as do general CDNs such as Akamai or Edgecast. Some networks, such as my ISP, are IPv6-native with tunnelled IPv4 to the Internet. Companies, including mine, are investigating IPv6-only office and DC networks to simplify security.
Most of the work is in the desktop client for you. Is this on your roadmap?
