from wikipedia:
A content delivery network or content distribution network (CDN) is a system of computers containing copies of data, placed at various points in a network so as to maximize bandwidth for access to the data from clients throughout the network. A client accesses a copy of the data near to the client, as opposed to all clients accessing the same central server so as to avoid bottleneck near that server.
I suppose that once you replicate content across some computers around the world, any url should be fine.
A content distrobution network (CDN) is not just another place on your website. A CDN is a way of distributing content to different geographical/network locations.
CDNs receive requests based on DNS redirection at the client ISP s side of the request.
