I *am* curious--what makes it any worse for a search engine like Google to fetch the file than any other random user on the Internet
Possibly because that other user is who the customer pays have their content delivered to?
Seems to me that if you're doing content-for-pay and are upset when some(body|thing) downloads it without paying for it, you shouldn't be leaving gigabytes of said content where even a stupid bot can find it and download it without paying for it. Just sayin'.
