    hi all
    i want to make a streaming video website to watch tv season "heroes" online.
    so far i know its illegal to do so. but i see so many sites on the internet. some of them even have page rank 3 on google. i heard that if they notice it they can fill up a dmca which will remove my sites from all the major websites.
    i want to create a subdomain for "heroes" like http://watchheroesonline.liyal.com
    liyal.com is my main domain and by creating subdomain from it i do some other affiliation marketing. now what im concerned about is that if they do a DMCA against my streaming site, will it remove all of the subdomains on liyal.com or just http://watchheroesonline.liyal.com.
    and i also heard that they can even remove all of the domains (not just subdomain) from the same hosting from all the major search engine. which definitly will be a big loss for me. now i just want to know how much of it is true...
    so please help me out....
    thanks in advance...

    Host offshore. DMCA relates to hosting in USA doesn't it?

    Most sites hosted offshore in a location which allows warez linking are fine.

    Well this is what i mean't by offshore hosting. If you have offshore hosting the company will scrap any DMCA emails. So they will not remove all websites from the hosting unless your hosted in the USA.

    For the other question, i'm not sure what your trying to say?

    Thanks,

    Ultralite.
