We have Akamai, they look at your AS and determine the amount of request. You probably need to draw 20 meg/s from their network before qualifying, they do provide machines to co-locate within your network, you just have to supply a /29 network. Limelight will not do this, they only will do a peering arrangement, I am currently in the process of exploring a peering arrangement with Limelight, I don't know their criteria for establishing a peering arrangment as of yet.
