FYI,
For those interested in how to create automated switchover between a CDN and their origin server (or other CDN or web server) in case of problems with their CDN, see this blog post:
[PHP] Web Failover Code Using cURL and Shared Memory
It is pretty easy to take the PHP code in the blog post above and create a vB Plugin.

For the past view months, SimpleCDN is performing very poorly. We have moved most of our traffic off SimpleCDN until (if or when) there service improves.
Our EU traffic is not even served from the EU, it is served from the US. Ditto for Asian traffic, it is not served from Asia, but from the US.
At the moment, SimpleCDN is performing very poorly. I don't recommend them at this time.
