Don't worry too much about wearing out the HD. In fact, you stress the thing more by turning the Mac on and off, than you do by leaving it spinning.

Not ON OFF ON OFF ON OFF ON OFF....................................... if this is done, expect premature electrical and/or mechanical failure.
My computers stay on 24/7 unless it is absolutely necessary that they be shut down (i.e. T&L storms).
