There's an alternate URL prefix you can use if your bucket name has periods: http://documents.scribd.com.s3.amazonaws.com/docs/91ltsqq5fk... becomes https://s3.amazonaws.com/documents.scribd.com/docs/91ltsqq5f...

If you use s3.amazonaws.com then you aren't using a CNAME anymore, meaning you can't use CloudFlare to accelerate the traffic. CloudFlare needs to control the DNS.
