Only problem with this is, if people don't hotlink, the only other option they have to share the vids / pics etc they want to take is to reupload them to another storage space. Which is whats happening with the likes of youtube, myspace, fotobucket or what ever its called to name but a few. When someone does this all credit usually goes completely. Apart from those pics that some of us have had to resize and watermark to make them less easy to steal. All of which takes a hell of a lot of time. At least with hotlinking as radiomaster said, you can tell who's it is lol.

Another option with videos, is to have to put a watermark on those. which also is time consuming and hard.

it's sad that some have to resort to doing this extra work to stop others stealing
