We have made a pretty amazing deal with one of the top5 CDN's on the market: Edgecast!
They power many verticals, but I would say media and entertainment is probably the strongest, mostly because they are funded by Walt Disney's venture capital company, Steamboat Ventures.
So Disney, IMAX, Sony, EMI, Paramount Pictures, and Lionsgate Films are just a few of the media companies that use EdgeCast. Edgecast are headquartered in Hollywood, so that has made it an easy vertical for them to navigate into as well.
But Edgecast also have a huge presence in the Web 2.0 space, as they power sites like LinkedIn, Mashable, Wordpress, and Mahalo.
They also have a lot of penetration into the traditional Enterprise space as well, with clients such as Kellogg's, Verisign, and Epson to name a few.
They have over 700 customers today, so the customers are vast and their use of EdgeCast varies across all platforms and types of services. Some of the large resellers include Deutsche Telekom, GlobalCrossing, Navisite, The Platform, The Planet, etc - and now UK2Group....
Edgecast has the coolest admin and reporting setup I've seen in the industry, and their ability to handle small files is top of the class. 16 pops spread out over US, Europe, Australia and Asia.
The deal we have with them is amazing, and enables us to go to market with a flat 5c/gb price incl. everything needed.
No setup fee's, no cost for origin pull storage, no extra cost for streaming, connections or anything else. Minimum purchase is $50 which would give you one terabyte.

This is not available to order at any of our websites yet, but you can read about it here: http://www.vi.net/cloud-hosting/vi-cdn.php - and contact me directly: ditlev@uk2group.com if you are interested.
