Bringing that up is FUD IMHO. Internet economics were totally different back then. Reality today is closer to "bandwidth is free". Not to mention the value they receive from inundating downloaders with Sun Microsystems branding and product advertisements, I expect Sun is paying less than a penny to serve a 4GB file.
