Content delivery network pricing continues to fall over time, ove rthe period 2008 to 2009 CDN pricing per gigabyte of bandwidth declined by 35% with the typical charge now being $0.11 per gigabyte of bandwidth on average.
New entrants to the CDN market such as Edgecast have not taken business from the industry standards such as akamai or limelight networks but have simply taken up the additional demand created by the explosion in media content on the internet.
