It's a problem for technical reasons also: DNS contains ~10 mirrors, which means I can poll every 5 minutes and on average the mirrors will individually only see requests every 50 minutes, making the individual mirrors not realize I'm being a jerk. If anyone can think of a reasonable way to reduce the bandwidth requirements then I can host a mirror. I've gotten approval to use 10 gig/month, and 20 gig/month might be do-able if I beg.
