I think legality would be hard to fight with the nature of RHL.  That said, it
may not be ethical.  It depends on how you look at it, for a paying RHN customer
such as myself, the 72 hour download time for shrike ISOs is bad as well.  For a
non paying customer, well, you decide for yourself.  
I do think this whole ordeal was a big mistake.  Sell Red Hat customers on this
new service, based on one feature.  And that feature is so slow as to be
useless...  seems it would be bad for business.  On the other hand, to those of
us who have been paying RHN subscribers for the past year or so, this is the
first time we have had any issues with ISOs on release day.

Just my $.02
