Alternative to 5centcdn

5centcdn used to provide akamai based CDN network for around 20 USD per month. It was good as 1000+ pops were there, do u know any other Akamai Reseller who is affordable?

What about bunny.net? I have been using bunny.net for several years. Their pricing is affordable. I think new accounts have to spend $1/month minimum.
Bunny.net uses CDN77, not Akamai. It's still a pretty good alternative otherwise.
More like they use DataCamp/DataPacket's network for most of their servers, said company/provider being the parent company of CDN77. They don't resell CDN77 directly.
I used to use rackspace cdn, just checked and it still works and is still akamai, but I'm in Latam at the moment and it's not hitting a pop here, so I'm not sure if I need to enable this region, or as a rackspace customer I only have access to a subset.
They no longer offer service?
Bunny is an Akamai reseller?
What's the practical difference?
No, They are using gcore instead of Akamai now.. And service quality is affected a lot.
Try to ping fonts.bunny.net. They have even more access points than CDN77, because they hosted only partial of points on DataPacket. Also CDN77 is not offering pay-as-you-go plan for now, because is not suitable for personal user or startups.
