DMCA: It's happened again

This was an email from 4AD the other day:

With a pretty extensive summer tour under way, Danish collective Efterklang have managed to take time out to remix tracks by fellow Copenhagen acts and friends and are very generously offering them for as free MP3s to one and all.
[...]

Follow these links to download the four MP3s for free:...

And, you might recall, we provided those links in a handy post. Because that was why they were sent to a music blog in the first place.

So, can anyone at 4AD explain why we've had a DCMA takedown notice - again, for files which are HOSTED ON THE BANDS' OWN WEBSITES?

That's twice now I've linked - not even hosted - to tracks that I've been invited to share by press officer/publicity people, only to have some dunderhead in America somehow decide that that "infringes" something and Google, with their understandable but unworkable 'take down first, ask questions to be answered by snail mail much, much later' approach.

Doesn't exactly make me warm to either the bands involved, or their record labels.

You might, by the way, be wondering if I've had the promised results of Jon Bleicher, the press bloke for Seasick Steve, looking in to why I was asked to offer links to a free track, and then got sent a DCMA for it. Bugger all from him, bugger all from Rykodisc, bugger all from Warners.
