When you say "stream", do you mean REAL-TIME streaming or Off time streaming? For REAL TIME streaming, you have a high requirement on server and its software(example: Windows Media Server).

If it is not real time streaming, then any server will do. You only need to get a hosting account with A LOT A LOT A LOT bandwidth. Much easier and less expensive than the real-time streaming.

huge bandwidth is not a problem but large files downloads make huge huge server loads

A dedicated web server will cost you around RM400/month. There are managed and unmanaged web server. The managed web server will do the maintainence job for you, therefore it is more expensive than unmanaged server.

We cannot tell you which company offer best dedicated web server hosting service. This is kind of trial and error game.

Here is a list of Top 50 hosting provider for your reference:

I see most providers still require you to pay for management fees if you are wanting fully managed solutions. Actually their 'managed' point are confusing. It's supposed to be called 'half-managed'

Big example are Managed.com, a popular nicknamed 'self-managed' services or Theplanet who keeps asking for $75/hr for admin fee even though it's offering 'managed' services. Use $75 to buy a book instead..
