This ups the pressure on entrenched CDNs. I love it. For static object delivery and streaming there is no longer any excuse for usurious bandwidth rates, opaque pricing, utter disinterest in smaller customers, and terrible control and monitoring interfaces. Now AWS needs to focus on CloudFront geography and performance. These go hand-in-hand to some extent, but CloudFront does not fare well even in single node latency tests. I know Amazon has the knowledge and drive to get there, and when they do, I hope they eat the old CDNs' lunch.
