Only because no one does what they do as well as they do it.

If they had competition, that wouldn't be the case. Sadly, there are very few other good guys out there...

What about akamai? Other CDNs and the like.

There exists competition, they've just been doing it consistently well at a large scale for awhile.

They've done nothing to prevent competition, because they're legit AF. The competition just hasn't put a dent in their market share because they're excellent at what they do.
