It's not S3 that's causing the problem; it's the compatibility between S3 and my host... their panel takes on too much control...
So my thinking is, just like the site, reinvent the wheel... don't let my host control my S3, instead I create my OWN API.
The reason I'm considering CloudFlare instead of CloudFront is 1) save a bit of money and 2) add the security benefits that CloudFront doesn't offer.
It's still up in the air, but yes; you're right--I have to work out the CDN (I thought I had!) before we can do anything. The site is meant to be screaming fast, and without a CDN it is only partially screaming fast.
