Is there a difference between how SixXS operated compared to he.net? Meaning, it seems as though he.net makes money on this whole ordeal. They are in fact a DNS provider as well as a hosting facility.

I thought he.net started out as a DNS provider and hosting facility. With the free IPv6 stuff, it lured many people to leave their current providers and go with he.net. So if that's the case, I can't see he.net going anywhere any time soon either.
Did SixXS do it this way? If not, and it was always a free service with no income, I can see why the guy got bored with it.
