People whose web pages generate a lot of traffic (10TB allowed) with low CPU usage, i.e. static pages and similar.

Surely such cases are better served by offloading to a CDN. As much as I hate centralizing to one company, CloudFlare nails this pretty damn well.

Wouldn't those users be better served by a $5 VPS? They're cheaper per-month, have no setup fee, and probably even get provisioned quicker.
