Amazon's Cloudfront: Blowing Away the Competition?

The way I see it, the people who are in place to take advantage of this caching capability are the people with small to medium size website delivering content. If you have a large number of visitors and a large infrastructure behind it, you probably have an agreement with larger companies like Akamai.

It is certainly disruptive technology but I can't imagine it impacting Amazon's top or bottomline anytime soon. Until their case studies or customer stories cite companies with more than 10 or 15 million dollars of revenue, I don't see this as more than a cool startup tool.
