Longtime frequenter of the site, been coming here for years to download the latest, and frankly not surprised at the DMCA notice coming along.
However I run a website and am familiar with copyright law, and there is a way around it. As an owner, you Viper, and any employee of the site, cannot endorse any link posting to the episode. You cannot make it a sticky thread, you cannot endorse it on the downloads pages, etc.
However, any USER on the forums can create a torrent link and post it on the forum within a thread and DMCA cannot do anything. Its User content, and they cannot get you for that. They'd have to show that you the site owner are endorsing the spread of copyrighted information and that you read the thread. The link would have to come down at some point as you will eventually.
