Fair point. It's true that hosting CDN assets on a separate domain at least requires more thought than it used to. Although there's also the fact that if you're using a common CDN the browser may have DNS cached. Plus it can still be a win if the CDN is well-located wrt to your target audience and you have a fair number of assets.
