    Is this a legitimate DMCA complaint?

    Please see:

    • The website in question simply links to/embeds content hosted by others.
    • The website in question has posted a Terms of Service page which clearly explains where the content is hosted and who is liable.

    In your eyes, is the filed DMCA complaint legitimate?
    Do you recommend a counter-DMCA complaint be filed, and if so, what do you suggest is outlined?

    The website linking to the content is as guilty as the website hosting it. IMHO.

    Not sure the legalities behind it though.

    Check (iii) Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to locate the material.

    Check (iv) Information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted.

    Check (v) A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

    Check (vi) A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
