Couldn't you just use cloudflare's free tier?

CloudFlare's hit rate is predictably terrible for large binary files. We actually use DigitalOcean + Varnish + S3 for serving downloads from mods.io, since the files are relatively big and the site has such a low margin. Traditional CDNs (we were using Fastly) are not scalable cost-wise for that particular site.
