Using a proper CDN ( http://www.rackspace.com/cloud/cloud_hosting_products/files/pricing/ http://www.rackspace.com/cloud/cloud_hosting_products/files/... ) you'll pay 0.18 USD per gigabyte. And that's the retail rate for a nobody. If you're somebody, you get discounts. Plus gzip and all the other stuff people brought up. Your real cost is like 10 bucks for that logo per month. I still wouldn't do it, but I'm a cheap bastard. Also, they're pissing away a lot more money with all that whitespace in the html/css/javascript!
