I think we are heading into a world where Internet is going to be
bifurcated with "/on/ the Internet" (with globally routed IP
address(es)) or "/access/ /to/ the Internet" (with one or more layers of
CGN).
I think that the vast majority of consumers would be content with the
latter while a small minority will demand the former.
Content hosting will almost definitely require the former. (Wiggle room
is for other arrangements that can be made.)
