I don't think it would matter to Wizards. We may not be profiting, but neither is Wizards if data from every source book is available for free on the internet (the whole share your music files argument, except for RPGs). Wizards would percieve a loss of money, and rightly so; there would be little to no controls on a file sharing site, so there's nothing stopping me from downloading data from sources I don't own.

I had briefly considered putting stuff I completed up on my personal website for download, but comments from Rob in another thread got me thinking that it was probably not a good idea to do that. While I don't really care one way or another if someone is using data files I created, I don't really want to get in trouble with Wizards (not even a "take this website down or else" e-mail). I won't repeat the other thread, but Rob did have some interesting thoughts on file sharing between users.
