I don't see how Cloudflare has a stranglehold. They've captured the bottom of the market by having low, low introductory prices and turnkey security. They have tons of huge and small competitors though. They have far less revenue than Akamai. |

Akamai doesn't look like the kind of company that wants to deal with 3,000,000 tiny accounts, and I don't think the customers will be happy with the service they get.
I guess to put it another way, do you use Cloudflare currently? If they made the free tier $5-$10/month for as many sites as you want, would you pay them or put in the effort to migrate?
I think I've got 2 sites I actually care about enough to want a CDN and DDoS protection. I would probably just pay up. I'm sure I could go somewhere else for free, but my Cloudflare setup works and I don't want to have to redo my Let's Encrypt wildcard.
