Most CDN providers also provide free access to "super node" caches at major
datacentres and peering points - depending on where you are located, which
datacentres you're in, and what your network looks like, you may find that it's
cheaper for you to interconnect with the CDNs within a datacentre (particularly
if you can do it via an IX), than the provide space and power for CDN nodes
within your own network.
