I wonder how much bandwidth would be freed up if BrickShelf
prevented off-site linking?

Well, I for one would abandon BS if this happened, unless links from LUGNET
pages were allowed (and I'd probably remove my LUGNET pages too, as they'd
be even more boring without the BS pics).

If BrickShelf started making you pay for the service of off-site deep
linking, would you abandon it as well?

I'd have to compare the fee and services provided against other hosts. In
general I have no problem paying for a good service. Currently, aside from
the bandwidth problem, Brickshelf provides all the services I need, for the
best price.

There are (much faster, more reliable) image hosting services out there,
they just cost money.

Exactly.
