It's simple risk vs. reward.

The risk of telling MySpace to fuck off isn't worth impressing a virtual hosting client. This is a fact at the average webhost.

Having your own box would buy you more time at most hosts. How much time depends on the host.

No, no, no. What I was agreeing 100% with was the right of a file owner to change the file in general without permission from those hotlinking. Your file, your right to change it.

There are VERY FEW instances where I wouldn't take the side of the person being hotlinked, but I just can't give this guy any sympathy in this particular case considering everything as a whole. This goes beyond simple hotlinking and the normal recourse of action.
