    This kind of annoys me..

    People smoke pot, they break the law. People break the law by video linking.

    So what? Couldn't be that bigga crime.

    Im curious. If Advertizing on these movie streaming sites, with movie affiliate programs is illegal? Or if the advertizer would have any legal exposure. Considering someone else owns the site and is responsible for its content etc etc?

    Let me clarify.

    Your website it's absolutley legal. You don't host those movie...you just show the links to ( megavideo, zshare )

    Affiliate programs in movie streaming websites are also legal ( Clickbank ).

    good luck

    So why did i get an DMCA notice to take all content of my site?
    I have a mp3 search engine site where you can listen and download music from other sites like 4shared etc.

    This is not legal right?

    only answer if you an expert in usa law.

    Your opinion doesn't count one bit. If it's illegal - it's illegal.
