This is what I can conclude from this thread:

People who suck at the game because of all the &quot;hackers&quot; don't want demos because they don't prove that anyone cheats.

Anyone that's any good at the game and/or really enjoys playing it likes having demos for various reasons... and I like X02's youtube channel that probably wouldn't be there without the dFb UT3 demos.

If recording demos help contribute to the server being a laggy piece of shit then I don't want them.

If I have a choice of banning anyone with a ping consistently over 150 or turning off demos top see what affects the server being a laggy piece of shit the most I'd go with banning high pingers first.
