It would be just about impossible to do. Netflix uses Akamai, and Hulu uses a mixture of Akamai and Limelight for "content delivery" services. These are the same content-delivery services used by just about everyone that has lots of content to distribute to lots of people (I'm pretty sure Microsoft uses Akamai for Windows Update, for instance) - Akamai claims they're responsible for 15 to 20 percent of all Web traffic on any given day, so blocking Akamai wholesale would probably be the worst idea.
