I understand they don't want to have people hogging their bandwidth and they do want folks to visit their site and click on the banner ads or pay a subscription fee (which removes the banner ads).

However, they should just create an official RSS feed with inline ads (e.g. "click here to buy our latest book") instead of fighting inevitability. Really, now, how long until someone overseas uses wget to actually download the image and serve the RSS feed themselves?
