A couple follow up questions.

What's the knock against Cogent bandwidth? (since it's cheaper).

Akamai is quoting a price of roughly 50 cents/gig for this much bandwidth, your guess comes in at around roughly 3-9 cents a gig.

Is the Akamai price difference based on bandwidth bursting during peak hours of the day and being "faster" from it's cache servers?

Just trying to figure out how bandwidth can be cheaper from the source from a dedicated line than from a supposedly cheaper edge cache network.
