This looks like a DNS misconfiguration by Adobe.

airdownload.adobe.com.  10800   IN      CNAME   airdownload.wip4.adobe.com.
airdownload.wip4.adobe.com. 300 IN      CNAME   airdownload.adobe.com.edgesuite.net.wip4.adobe.com.

I think they missed the dot off the target address of the second CNAME. If
I manually correct for this error I get the remarkably concatenative:

airdownload.adobe.com.edgesuite.net. 21600 IN CNAME airdownload.adobe.com.edgesuite.net.globalredir.akadns.net.
airdownload.adobe.com.edgesuite.net.globalredir.akadns.net. 3600 IN CNAME a1396.d.akamai.net.
a1396.d.akamai.net.     20      IN      A       184.27.136.17
a1396.d.akamai.net.     20      IN      A       184.27.136.25
