This is using an intelligent system where downloads will be much faster than that from the dedicated server you're talking about.

Take this as a distributed system, where the end-users are re-directed towards the closest download server according to their location. This should give them the best download speeds.

Thank you for your comments and your interest in CDN services.

I would also like to note that there are other calculations and algorithms performed by our application servers as well.

Our CDN service has many other benefits comparing to standard/traditional web hosting, please read more info at:
