Leaseweb DMCA not allowed
OVH/Kimsufi: DMCA Not allowed

Good luck for your project

Think of trying koddos.com services to meet all your demands.
Contact their support to put more questions to them. They are active and they try to satisfy the needs of all their customers.

they are a bit expensive for starting out

I can only recommend you to Hawk Host, which I think HH offers off shore hosting, if this is what you are looking for.

thanks DDosDefend.
Any other suggestions guys.

I suggest you to contact Ecatel.net and ask them about your requirement.

The only reservation with off-shore is latency issues, as well as support depending on the provider.

If you're focusing on US I'd try a provider in Latin America or Canada. Just check with them first to make sure it's cool.

Searching for Chap = Hostgator Dedicated Server

Leaseweb, OVH = Most of the files sharing sites using that. And most of those sites owner end-up in JAIL or Bankrupt.

Dedifrance, kimsulfi = Same OVH LOL!

I'm also working on this project for quite of the time. I build my own script (By copy for other good files hosting script). I using a good Web hosting company (I can't say that company name here. inbox me) and hoping it's turned out well. And there is no cheap server/s for files sharing web sites. LOL!

Most good hosting providers will forward any complaints to you and offer you 24/36 hours for removal of DMCA regulated content. This would be easy to do in both EU and USA on most networks. You do not necessarily have to go off shore to get this level of quality Budget I would expect with a 1Gbps port around $140.00USD - $200.00USD depending on how much content and traffic you expect to get. You could go lower but you would end up buying a bunch of small servers which may end up costing more over time. Biggest thing is that you will want to be compliant with regulations. Make sure that you have a report link where people can submit DMCA complaints to you on your website and you should be fine
