Regardless of who put them there, you were certainly benefiting from them becauseyou were using those hot-links as bait to get people to come to your site.
not necesarily. i was never all that fond of people who came for that content. they were never the most intelligent bunch.

You needed something to get people there because you're selling advertising per impression and without all those juicy free movies any income you might have from advertising is going to disappear real quick.
guess i'll just have to wait and see as to whether it will impact sales or impressions. i'm not exactly mourning the loss, as there's plenty of completely legal linking on the site that generates the required boners

as i said, the hotlinking was a small part of the site, and it's very doubtful it will crumble away now that it's gone.
