    hey guys I currently have a website that is hosted in the netherlands and it links to tv shows and has embedded videos of tv shows but no tv shows hosted on my servers. Is this legal on these netherland servers?

    I would take care with that.

    The Dutch government is now looking to target sites like Mininova operating in the company which only provide torrents, rather than distributing any copyrighted material themselves.

    If you are interested here is a recent government report which includes many references to sites like Mininova which are indirectly providing free access to copyrighted material--
