This might've been posted already, but I didn't find any topic with similar names.

Anyway, my friend just had to close his pre-db site due to a claim by the (German) hosting company. They said that "owning sites that index releasenames are illegal in Germany". It's a very stupid claim, as even Google is illegal in that case too with their new search-suggestion function.

Just a warning to everybody, don't host pre-db's or even warez sites there. German law is apparently very strict... and stupid (sry to any Germans).
