@Jonathan Dingman - Well, $40 per year is a heck of a lot cheaper than $108 bucks.

@Mark k., @Ryan Hellyer - I have little experience in the realm of Content Distribution Networks and their pricing. I only remember how expensive they were about 2 years ago. I thought $9.00 a month was cheap but looking at other options and the comments here, it's not.

@Pranjal - I wonder if Automattic will at some point create their own premium CDN service or acquire one which would be another Platform Agnostic way of generating revenue. Makes sense to me.
