That's almost certainly the case.  We have static content Akamai servers on
our network, and what we were told (and had repeated a number of times as
we've dealt with them on a few issues) is that Akamai has, in general, 3
types of servers that they deploy:

1.) Static content
2.) Pre-recorded streaming content
3.) Live streaming content

In almost all cases, the boxes that they'll put on campuses are of type 1.
Type 2/3 servers are almost all in their own data centers or co-located
with the larger ISPs.

Obviously I have no idea how correct this may be now.  Or heck, if it ever
was correct.  :)
