Speeding up the information super highway ! Akamai is a vendor of tons of large corporations and they seem to have top technical talent on board which should allow them to keep ahead of the competition as long as they continue to execute well.

Apple recently updated their Apple TV to allow for video rentals directly from the Apple TV. Assuming Apple is using Akamai to serve these video streams as they do with their other iTunes Store content, this should provide a nice boost to Akamai as the Apple TV seems to finally be taking off with this newly added ability. I have several friends who have recently purchased Apple TVs and have been renting several movies per week. At ~4GB each for HD Movies, that bandwidth will add up quickly for Akamai.

Huge growth potential.  Main concerns appear to be prices / competition.  History of delivering great results.

Akamai is seriously undervalued and competition may be able to compete with them now but the CDN industry is in its infancy and purely based on packet delivery. To remain competitive in the CDN will require a considerable amount of R&D, innovation, and creativity which no CDN except Akamai offers.
