Quite so. Last time I did any checking, I found a whole load of hits from myspace twonks who thought it was just fine to insert images linked to my server, rather than bother to upload them to myspace or photobucket or somewhere. Needless to say, said images were quickly replaced with one saying "Please stop stealing my bandwidth".. Most of them got the message and stopped linking. The one that didn't got a rather stronger message to deal with ;-)
