Even on Dialup, V3 should be screaming fast. You wouldn't be able to play any of the videos... but maybe listen to the audio at least 
The issue stems from the fact that I setup the CDN using 3rd party software, thinking that'd be fine.
It worked a treat, but then stopped updating (pushing new files to S3).
So, now I'm reassessing my stance on the CDN and saying, I'm not going to use 3rd party systems to maintain the CDN. I'm going to redo our DNS (a daunting task which also means deprecating some of the old subdomains). I'm going to manage the S3 syncing myself, manually to start and eventually tapping into their API to automate the process. I'm going to have to rebuild the ENTIRE CDN structure from scratch, which means killing V3 and rebuilding the backend of the CDN. It's a pretty big set-back, but it's required.
