    Is it an automated email or email sent by an employee?
    Interestingly they didn't disabled the ads as specified in the e-mail
    Later I manually disabled them,
    I guess what i did is correct
    Any suggestions?

    E-mail them back if you want your ads to be shown on that site.

    you've got a narrow escape... be careful next time....

    its very rare that they warn... they usually ban only!

    Uhm, I think the obvious choice would be.. Oh let me see.. I guess stop distributing copyrighted materials and using adsense. I am not sure why they just didn't ban you, because it is in there Terms that you can't do this.

    Could be a fake email.
    I had something like this before and made a thread about it here.
    I never got a response from Google on two emails used.

    I got the same exact email. It takes them a few days for the site to disappear from their network.

    Yep, that would do it then. Guess you never heard of the RIAA, Napster, and more or less the other 12,000 lawsuits dealing with mp3 downloading.

    You are only allowing people to download illegal copyrighted music. What is wrong with that?

    You got lucky. Google rarely gives out warnings and that site puts you at risk with the RIAA as well. Take it down and move into something legitimate if you want to use adsense and avoid a lawsuit.

    serious. It is one thing to download mp3s from the net (copyrighted) but it is another to host them!!! Take it down and move on.
