Im unsure what your question is. "How do you start a business…" or do you want to know what products would do the job for a business you described?
Personally, I would use Microsoft Home Server as a backend media/storage server and use Vista Ultimate / Windows 7 Ultimate as a Media center connected to the TV. You can get quite powerful Media center PC’s with HDMI out, powered by Intels Atom processor that can handle BluRay playback too.
MyMovies is a great app to install on Home Server to copy all your DVD’s to stream over the network. And you MUST get AnyDVD HD from Slysoft - its an awesome product. Works well with Cyberlink PowerDVD 9 for playing back BluRay/HD DVD’s and normal DVD.

As you may know a domain name is just a name, not a real website. If you are going to create your website: 1- Buy a domain name. A domain name is a name you want to call your website (ex: http://www.yahoo.com). To get a domain name, you have to pay an annual fee to a registrar for the right to use that name. 2- Buy a web hosting service to provide your online space and enable you to get your website online at your purchased domain name.

You need a web hosting service which supports online payments like, Master Card, Visa & PayPal. It is very important that your service be uptime. It means that you can access your account whenever you want to update your web pages, and your visitors can view your website whenever they type your website address. If your hosting service is not uptime it is real hell!
If you want to start your website I recommend purchase your domain and hosting together. In this way it is possible to get your domain for free. Some hosting services offer this gift today.
