AFAIK, it is currently not a crime within the United States, although there is legislation in the pipeline to make streaming a felony[1]. These websites rely on having links to the copyrighted content, rather than hosting it themselves. [1]

Without being familiar with your service, do you implement caching? memcached[1] may lighten your load if you do not. What web server do you use, apache? Perhaps nginx or lighttpd would be a better fit if you do use apache. Check out this p
