1000GB per month is a huge volume for most ISPs, it is probably a good idea to approach one of the ISPs that are allowed to install servers in the main exchange. The main reason is actually the price, essentially for the volume of traffic it is probably cheaper dealing with the bigger operators.

I'm located in the UK, the only ISP I know is VastNet, they can install servers in Telehouse, the UK MBone. I used to work for VNet and I know that VirginRadio server was located in a Cable Online Exchange.

I don't think Windows is a sensible choice for streaming server, not just because it is unreliable, you are expected to administrate the server remotely, UNIX shell would be the sensible choice.
