But this site isn't streaming or downloading music. It redirects users to the site were the set is played from.
Maybe you can contact Arnoud Engelfriet and see what he has to say about this site and if its legal or not.

It's in Dutch i'm afraid, but the main point is that linking to legal content is legal, like linking to Facebook, SoundCloud, MixClound and so on.

It would be illegal if the content is played thru the website, which(?) is not.

it's not about thoselameevents, it's just another stupid move from artists & companies who cry a lot that someone posted their sets quicker than companies, just another useless move. there is solutions for this for Dutch sites, just site owner should change site country and make redirect from .nl domain into kinda .com / .co and so on.

Came here for Defqon sets and I see we won't be able to have them... just sad. Not sure what's with this weirdness with sets. They've been all over the internet for ages, since streams existed...I don't see events, organizations, artists, etc losing sales or attendance because of recorded streams... I see the exact opposite! We'll have to wait ages for these sets (or get them from sites which don't really have a Hard Dance community, which is sad...)

It doesn't just apply to Q-Dance, it's general knowledge that ripping or recording sets from steams is illegal. It wouldn't have a disclaimer because most people should be aware of it.

This website has been widely known for years. Why only enforce this now? I find it really strange why organisations suddenly want to double down on "set protection". I've also checked where's the disclaimer saying it is illegal to record sets from Q-Dance Radio, and I didn't found anything (not saying it doesn't exist, just saying I didn't find any mention of it being forbidden).

Recording radio/streams for personal use is perfectly legal though, it's just not allowed to share them without permission.
Altijd goed geleid en shit

Now GeForceFM.nl was also shut down because of the streaming but also because they uploaded sets from Above & Beyond, Tiesto's Club Life etc. They call it 'mass scale copyright infringement'. I don't think it will take long before they come after LSDB so I want to prevent that.
The only solution that I can come up with is that we can only allow links to official soundcloud/mixcloud/youtube accounts.
edit: I enabled all Soundcloud/Mixcloud/Youtube/Facebook links
