If you mean us (Xirvik), neither of those. OVH because we know of too many exceptions already (there are people who has a great experience with OVH of course, but we also know of others that have lousy connections) and leaseweb because it doesn't make financial sense. They offer good service but overpriced, and the seedbox world is too competitive.

BTW I'm not saying that our current providers are trouble free; whenever a client says he's not having good speeds we immediately offer him to switch a different server on a different provider, which obviously has some workload for us. But we do try to minimize the chances of that happening :-)

Way to advertise for yourself buddy.
There's no way in hell I'm going to buy a seedbox from a company that cannot even afford their own domain. .tk is free!

No such thing as primary :-) We are currently happy with netdirekt (Germany based) for example, BUT we known at least of an UK ISP whose connection to it is less than optimal (we moved the client to a US server and he's happy now).

I think the best strategy is to avoid putting all the eggs in one basket. It's best for us and it's best for our clients.
