Akamai pay as you go pricing was just around 150$/TB pricing with resellers
Who resells at this rate other than VPS.net? There's a reason Akamai terminated their contract. I haven't found another legitimate reseller that's anywhere close, and Akamai direct is 3x that rate for say a small TB/month commit.
Level3 does not appear to have an Asian CDN presence. [Edit: I'm wrong. They do have CDN nodes in Asia, but man it's hard to find a map.]
EdgeCast is an excellent alternative. ThePlanet resells them at under $0.20 per GB but I've been having trouble getting them to take our business now that the SoftLayer merger has closed. Many other resellers are out there ar less competitive rates, e.g. GoGrid and SpeedyRails.
One area CDNs seem to miss out on is India. Most of the ones I've seen including Level3 have their pops in SG/HK. Only Bitgravity and Akamai have India pops
Thanks for the lead on theplanet. The edgecast pricing is not bad :)
