Although you cannot choose which CDN to connect to, you can map all 4 hostnames to the IP address of the origin server. The origin server is where the CDN will pull the files from and serve to users. This would mean that the origin server is less busy since it is not used to serve files to millions of users but only serve once to the each CDN. The origin server has a hostname of cdn-01-origin.steampowered.com or cdn-01.steampowered.com, and the hostname will resolve to an IP address of 208.64.200.30.
