::CDN77 was chosen for its great number of Points of Presence (PoP), its apparent reliability, and its extremely low prices (2-2.5x less than competitors). Note that CDN77 does not manipulate the content like CloudFlare does: it just serves the content you would formerly access directly from Orain's servers. I don't see any reason not to trust scripts from our CDN. [[User:Kudu|Kudu]] ([[User talk:Kudu|talk]]) 22:01, 21 October 2013 (UTC) |

:::Thanks for that Kudu. I'm very cautious about third-party scripts. I'll take your word about CDN77 and ignore the WOT reputation score. Now I just need to un-deny it in NoScript. In all my years of using NoScript, I've never done that before, teeheehee. <span title="Meta-Wiki profile" class="plainlinks">[http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:AugurNZ <font color="#000" face="Times">'''''Augur'''''</font><font color="#33f" family="Arial">'''''NZ'''''</font>]</span> <span title="Meta-Wiki talk" class="plainlinks">[http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:AugurNZ <font color="#000" size="4">✐</font>]</span>[[Special:Contributions/AugurNZ|<font size="4" color="#000">⌕</font>]] 23:54, 21 October 2013 (UTC) |

Here are the prices and characteristics for several CDNs: |
|||
* CDN77: $0.05/GB of traffic, free storage, $99 minimum (expires in a year) |
|||
* CDNify: $0.06/GB of traffic, free storage, $30 minimum, no servers in Eastern Asia or Australia |
|||
* CloudFlare: $20/mo, no traffic or storage limit, no push |
|||
* CloudFront: $0.12/GB of traffic |
|||
* MaxCDN: $10/mo, 100GB traffic limit, no storage limit |
|||
They all do well in [http://www.cedexis.com/country-reports/ Cedexis' tests] in North America and Europe. I think going CDNify and CloudFront are the best options: CDNify is a little bit cheaper, but CloudFront has a more balanced network and the difference in price will be very small.
