If you are looking for something you can buy out of the box it appears that Akamai is doing iPhone video streaming now. I believe that the following solution using Amazon S3 and Cloudfront is probably as good as what Akamai can offer but it may be a better choice if you don’t want to have to maintain the configuration.

Little tip on CouldFront

So I logged back to my registrar, found the DNS management options and switched my CNAMEs to the CloudFront domain instead of the origin bucket and hoped that everything works well. The very next day I got my very first bill for Amazon CloudFront – three cents! Hurray! I’m not sure if this is well written in the documentation for CloudFront and S3 (I doubt that people read them) but I have a few friends who have experienced the same problem and why the address of the origin bucket in the first place? Weird. The S3 Firefox Organizer groups both fields into one and that’s even more weird. Oh well, glad I sorted it out.
