    I m gonna host my own e-book page which may contain millions of ebooks. I m actually far away from the known world. Anyway, all files will be hosted privately and just web page will be in USA. Is there any chance to keep it open?

    Uhhh...If you don't have the rights to the ebooks, then you might get shut down.

    In USA, a DMCA will shut down your web site, especially millions of ebooks, how many are copyrights? I really do not suggest any kind of illicit activities.

    Yeah, unless you have the rights to the ebooks.
    OR you can host the ebook page as your affiliate landing page.

    Glad that you think this way. Go find an ebook that have giveaway rights or resell rights. There are thousands of ebooks that you can download legally out there.
