I can only think of 2 things but would love clarification if any one knows. 1. they found a virus or something malicious in a release, or 2. they got a dmca or copyright takedown

Both seem somewhat unlikely R2R has a really good reputation, and there's enough on audioz that if copyright stuff could get anything taken down, the site wouldn't exist at all.
