We are proud to announce a powerful, easy, affordable content delivery network: CU CDN (http://www.cucdn.com/). We're a division of Codecs Unlimited (CU), a leading provider of multimedia technology to the entertainment industry.

We offer a world-class CDN with a simple, point-and-click control panel and very reasonable prices. Our plans are flexible, and are designed to make sure that you get get what you pay for. We only charge for bandwidth; no setup fees or extra fees for advanced reporting, security, etc.

We're happy to offer an exclusive 10% discount for WHT members on your first month of service. Just use the code WHT at checkout. Actually, your discount will be for more than a month because your first order will include the rest of May pro-rated, and June. The discount will be applied to your purchase, but your CDN account will be credited for the full amount before discount.

Please visit our site to learn more about us:

A special note to WordPress webmasters...our CDN service works beautifully with WordPress. Our own site runs WP, using a plug-in and a simple subdomain/CNAME setup to serve static content from the CDN. We'll soon launch a WordPress-specific sub-site with tips, tricks and plug-ins. But if you'd like to know how to set it up before then, please contact me.

Of course, our CDN is full-featured and isn't limited to WordPress.

Please don't hesitate to ask for any additional information you need, either here or via e-mail (mark.bailey@cucdn.com).

Thank you.

is it your own network or are you reselling another CDN (cachefly, highwinds, edgecast etc)?

Hello,

We use the Highwinds infrastructure. So we're not offering a new, unproven network, we're built on an established, proven foundation.

We do mention Highwinds in a couple of places on our site, just in case anyone thought we were trying to hide something. ;-)

Our key advantage is that we're offering a solid product at very aggressive pricing without the startup fees and add-on fees that other people charge for the same service. Other providers (including those based on Highwinds) charge fees that can make a comparable package cost many times what we charge. Examples of some other providers' charges:

- Setup fee, as much as $150.
- Origin pull setup see, as much as $125 per server.
- "Advanced reporting", as much as $500 per month.
- Security (token authentication, etc.), as much as $500 per month.
- Requests ("GET", etc.), small charges per X requests, but these can add up.

We're trying to offer real value with no gimmicks.

BTW, congratulations on the continued success of your companies.

Best regards,

Mark

We've had quite a few people ask us to consider offering small, one-time trial accounts...to allow people to test drive our CDN service, kick the tires of the control panel, etc. We'll also be glad to assist you by providing answers during your trial.

We are happy to oblige. For a limited time, we're offering $4.00 trial accounts. When you order, you'll get $4.00 in credit to use toward bandwidth or storage. Bandwidth is charged against your balance at $0.30 per GB, and storage at $1.00 per GB/month. So, a typical usage scenario might be:

1 GB storage ($1.00)
10 GB bandwidth ($3.00)

Like our monthly plans, this approach lets you mix and match bandwidth to meet your needs. Any overages will be charged at the same rates, however our control panel lets you monitor usage to prevent overages if necessary.

So, for the price of a gourmet coffee, you can try our world-class CDN service.

Click here to order. (http://www.cucdn.com/support/cart.php?a=add&pid=26)

To ensure that we give exceptional support to all trial users and our other clients as well, we are currently limiting this offer to the first 250 signups. Please note that our 10% discount does not apply to these special trial accounts.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to e-mail me at mark.bailey@cucdn.com.
