Re: [Videolib] Surveys for Users of Library Video Collections?
Hi Meghan, I concur with deg that we need more data on specific user experiences with library based commercial video collections. IMHO Jane Otto's 2014 C article on the topic is a decent reference point (includes survey and qualitative focus group methodologies): Otto, J. J. (2014). University Faculty Describe Their Use of Moving Images in Teaching and Learning and Their Perceptions of the Library’s Role in That Use. *College & Research Libraries*, *75*(2), 115-144. Similarly, in Spring '15 to capture some case studies as part of a streaming task group initiative, I sent out a survey to known instructor users of our licensed streaming video content asking about specific pedagogical use cases, content value, streaming affordances, and technical experience with these materials. I am not certain if it would be helpful for your question, but feel free to take a look at a public copy I made of this survey: http://z.umn.edu/publicvideousesurvey. Further, I would be happy to share some of the general results if anyone is interested.

Re: [Videolib] Streaming media in collection development policy (Laura Jenemann)
Hi Laura, We had A/V integrated into various subject collection development policies, but nothing that expressly called out streaming. Therefore, I developed this Recommended Title Level Licensed Streaming Selection Criteria guidelines ( https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wFEfq4AQf0vOq0QMteJ-MllmuxMQEiGC4SY_mQXQR_4/edit?usp=sharing) with colleagues. Note: this guide has been vetted internally with various UMN Libraries staff and groups, though I would not consider it necessarily as an official streaming collection development policy, but more as a guidance document.

Hi Everyone, In response to the increase in some unusual, highly restrictive DVD purchase usage terms, we are developing some internal guidelines for agreeing, denying, or negotiating terms.

Re: [Videolib] lab protocol videos
Laura, I guess that depends on what you mean by anything similar to JoVE? - If you are talking about a STEM journal that includes virtually 100% video abstracts on each article, than I am not aware one (to approximate, see video abstract article below for potential publishing venues that offer similar content in discipline specific journals) - At the risk of a shameless plug, if you are talking about STEM journals that offer the option and frequently include video abstracts with their articles, there are several of them highlighted in my article last year on the topic and related data set. You could also find many of these video abstracts curated on the WeShareScience website ( https://wesharescience.com/) Spicer, S. (2014). Exploring Video Abstracts in Science Journals: An Overview and Case Study. *Journal of Librarianship and Scholarly Communication* 2(2):eP1110. http://dx.doi.org/10.7710/2162-3309.1110 - If you are talking about journals that have articles that sometimes include video content of lab experiments, some of those experiments are occasionally included in certain video abstracts or separately as supplemental content files; found using a database such as ScienceDirect (use image search engine, further limit to video post results) - If you are talking about online scholarly science research videos in general you could check out resources such as the TIB|AV portal ( https://av.getinfo.de/?20), the aforementioned WeShareScience or even sites such as ScienceCinema (DOE) http://www.osti.gov/sciencecinema/ if you have a specific discipline in mind.

We maintain three -- one in our viewing carrels that students can use, one in our Media Research Room (basically a faculty media study), and one in our Viewing Room (multimedia projection room which can be scheduled for class screenings). I'm glad we have several after reading that they are becoming harder to come by! We have a robust study abroad program, so we regularly get folks who bring materials back from a country with different standards / region codings and are surprised when they won't work on their players. Also, we have a popular ELI program and students occasionally want to view something they've brought from home. (Although again, we're seeing more DVDs than tapes now, which isn't a surprise.) As fewer patrons have access to VCRs, I think it's becoming more important that we provide access -- especially to cover formats and regions, etc., that we have in our collections. But as we're seeing with laserdiscs, there's a limited amount of time where that's a realistic goal as far as technology is concerned. -- Meghann Matwichuk, M.S.

[Videolib] Future of educational media distribution - institutional obsolescence
Andrew, Yes, I agree we should be surveying classroom management professionals to get our fingers on the pulse of future institutional physical media classroom support. Of all the research topics we have discussed, this one may be the most pressing! I will follow up with you offline to discuss further, pending deg's response. deg: in your study with Jane did you survey classroom management folks on their plans for future classroom physical media playback support? If not, are you (or is anyone else here) aware of a relatively recent study that has? I will also research the higher ed. a/v support/educational technologist literature to see if this issue has been tackled elsewhere.

This is more of a pragmatic than legal interpretation issue. Just a provocation here... Like many campuses, I suspect, we are likely looking at a 1 to 3 year window (5 tops) before we are facing an issue of essentially institutional obsolescence. What is institutional obsolescence? I define it as the point at which standalone VHS/DVD players are no longer available or supported in most campus classrooms (regardless of whether the machine or device necessary to render perceptible a work stored in that format is no longer manufactured or is no longer reasonably available in the commercial marketplace, (Sec. 108c(2)) - though VHS is can't be too far away despite arguments to the contrary). I used to think that the transition from VHS to DVD acquisitions bought us some time.

Re: [Videolib] Future of educational media distribution - institutional obsolescence
Jane, Thank you, I missed your reply before I posed my question to deg regarding your study. If you are considering adding this question, I think it would be useful for us to touch base. Just out of curiosity, did you target classroom management professionals in your survey? If so, do they represent multiple levels of higher education and Carnegie classifications? We believe the institutional obsolescence issue is so important, that it may require a dedicated study targeted toward the classroom management audience with care taken to cover multiple levels (e.g., all ARL, NITLE, AACC institutions). This is something Andrew and I are interested in researching, so we would be happy to contribute if you think your survey could meet this goal. Otherwise, we may conduct a separate one. I think these responses could dovetail nicely with your past survey in that we would also need to get the librarians point of view on what impact (pressure) lack of classroom playback has or may have on their perceptions/strategies for scaling digital delivery.

Re: [Videolib] library instruction (Brannen, Michelle)
Though the Media Services unit that I head has both media production and resources support services in its portfolio, the bulk of my instruction is similarly customized course media production support. As Michelle suggested this can vary according to the assignment and instructor learning objectives, but typically includes an overview of available campus support options; production process overview; media project asset management and backup; suggested equipment, software, and quality composition specific to the genre of media project (e.g., PSA, digital story, adaptation, vodcast, etc..); media resources collections (for mixed media projects); copyright/fair use; and media attribution. If the instructor requests it, we will provide a hands-on workshop for a specific piece of software or equipment. I stay away from non-course related, decontextualized software and equipment instruction. This is all part of a richer outreach program that might also include for example, an upfront consultation on the assignment development, coordination of resources and on-demand production support in the SMART Learning Commons space that I also provide guidance to, then later class visit for project screenings, and project debrief to discuss what the students learned, where we can tweak support next time, and how we can improve our services where relevant. I have formally supported roughly 150 media projects (~100 unique instructors) over the past five years and I typically work with about 20 different courses per a semester these days. The other type of instruction I provide is partnering with our campus IT department to teach 1-2 workshops a year on approaches and benefits of integrating media resources and student projects into curriculum (e.g., media literacy concepts, learning objectives). This is an important tool in convincing instructors to consider evolving their instruction with media in the first place. As our digital media collections program is developing, I would be interested to hear more about the different types of instruction related to media collections (e.g., general instructor education on library/open media content, course specific media collections, and pedagogical affordances of using digital media, such as a flipped model of assigning students BBC Shakespeare videos to view outside class so they can practice for in class performances).

Re: [Videolib] More proof that media is the redheaded step child
deg, I agree with your assertion to a large extent. That said, point of fact, the report does provide some nods to trends in media intersection with academic libraries. There are several members of our community, such as myself, who are additionally engaged in services related to these trends. Variety of formats (sometimes code for media): (p. 2, Librarians will be challenged to provide services in a variety of formats, for a variety of students who are attending their institution (and others).) Multimodal Scholarship: (p. 10, publications that support embedded media formats; p. 15, encourage and use digital media formats for broad dissemination of information.) Media Production: (p. 23, Universities and libraries that do not embrace the potential for multimedia production, project management, and university services (Johnson, Adams, and Cummins 2012) could quickly fall behind the curve.) Still, agreed, it is a bit stunning that educational media collections and concomitant issues are completely absent, particularly at a time when eLearning seems to be all the rage. A/V preservation of local collections appears to be overlooked as well, even when the authors had a prime opportunity to explicitly include it (p. 15, Methods for providing discovery, access, delivery, and preservation of nontext scholarship (cell lines, data sets, etc.) will continue to change the landscape of scholarly communication.).

[Videolib] Suggestions for anti-bullying media (in addition to Bully)?
Collective Wisdom, One of our Social Work faculty members is updating a resource guide directed towards parents on the topic of school bullying and has requested some materials that are not sensationalist or full of scare tactics. I have not seen Bully, but it appears to have received tons of press coming from Weinstein, with the film's initial R rating and associated in-school anti-bullying movement. The reviews I read have been mixed, with the greatest criticism being that the documentary is overly emotional and fails to consider the complex dynamics of school bullying, as well as backgound of the students featured. More than one critic appreciated the attempt, however, calling for additional documentary films to be made that provide greater balance to the issue. Does anyone know of other quality films that perhaps I might recommend? Again, the audience for this resource guide is parents, so some of the educational media you may recommend may not be accessible. Still, I will forward relevant suggestions to the faculty member. Sadly enough, it appears this issue may be too new to our public consciousness for the material to develop.

[Videolib] VRT Membership Media Interests and Engagement Survey Results (Fall 2012) Report Published
Pardon the cross post: Hi Everyone, This fall the VRT sent out a survey to better gauge current membership media related library roles, interests, and preferred strategies for VRT outreach and engagement. An additional goal was to capture topic interests for a potential, much subsidized, VRT sponsored pre-conference at ALA Annual 2014. A report of the survey results has now been postedhttp://connect.ala.org/node/198600on the VRT section of the ALA Connect blog. We had a decent number of responses (57!), and the feedback provided insight that will no doubt be useful. Capturing this information is just the first step, with further discussion to follow in order to determine possibilities for future directions. A discussion around the results of this report will take place at the ALA Midwinter 2013 Video Round Table Membership and Executive Board Meeting (OPEN to all) (Monday, January 28, 2013 - 8:30 - 11:30am - Jefferson Room (Sheraton Seattle Hotel http://alamw13.ala.org/node/8610)). If you will be at Midwinter, please feel free to stop by and contribute to the discussion. If you want to offer feedback either on the blog or to me directly feel free to do so. Also, the online survey form http://bit.ly/VWkRm7 is still open. Best, Scott Spicer PS: I am looking forward to seeing those of you attending Midwinter this weekend!

Re: [Videolib] Open Access Week: film suggestions
: [Videolib] Faculty discussion forum on use of video in the curriculum Greetings Colleagues, We are planning a discussion forum bringing together public and technical services librarians with faculty actively using video in the classroom. We?d like your advice. The purpose would be to spark a discussion that would inform our cataloging policies and practices. For example, we have never indexed country of origin or original language, but there are new draft best practices for this and if there were sufficient interest we would consider a policy change. We have a list of about 200 faculty who use video in the classroom and they would all be invited. For this program we envision a few faculty speakers with diverse perspectives making brief presentations, followed by a discussion over lunch. For example we might have professors from cinema studies, a language program, social science or history, and communications. This will also be an opportunity for us to offer faculty information such as searching tips, streaming video availability, and video in the institutional repository, which we may include as presentations or handouts. We wonder if anyone else has done anything similar or might have suggestions for us. Can you think of questions you?ve always wanted to ask faculty, or ways to tap into their insights? Some of the questions we?re thinking to include are: ? How do you use video ? How do you find video (in the catalog and elsewhere) ? How can we facilitate your use of video ? What are typical video requests ? What do you find problematic about finding video in the catalog ? What are specific problematic title requests (difficult to find videos) ? Rank the usefulness of retrieval by o genre/form o subject (for fiction) o subject (for nonfiction) o country of origin o original language o other We are hoping for a lively discussion and hope your ideas will help make this happen.

Re: [Videolib] Now working with economics...
Hey Rachel, Congratulations! If the content you are dealing with at IMF is digital video, do consider adding it to the digital video guide I posted on ALA Connect: http://connect.ala.org/node/183711. I know that video pertaining to the global role of the IMF and World Bank on developing nations is integrated into at least one of our courses (not necessarily favorably, to be frank), but at least the instructor I knew was very careful to try to find content that provided a balanced perspective for discussion. This content could supplement titles such as Life and Debt, amongst others, perhaps.

[Videolib] Digital Video Collections Guide Published on ALA Connect. Open for Community Contribution (ALA member or not).
Hi Everyone, Pardon the cross post. I have published a somewhat extensive Digital Video Collections Guide (http://connect.ala.org/node/183711) on ALA Connect (VRT Section), consisting of quality licensed and open digital video collections. This guide is a mirror of the one we use at Minnesota, and was developed with great support from deg farrely (ASU), John Vallier (UofWash) and content from the LibGuides Community. This is published as an Open Doc with the hopes that media interested individuals (ALA member or not) across institutions and constituencies, will feel free to contribute links/descriptions of excellent digital video collections and repurpose as they see fit (suggested guidelines on page). I plan to continue maintenance checking for active links annually as practical. Last summer, I published a similar Digital Image Collections Guide ( http://connect.ala.org/node/152079) on ALA Connect, and the response was very strong (7,500 views). I am told for image resources communities, that guide has been a valuable resource, so I am hopeful this guide may be of assistance for various video interested professionals as well. Particularly, as a VRT outreach strategy for building depth of media expertise in ALA, similar to the recent EBSS/VRT Annual program collaboration. Please feel free to share with your colleagues! Finally, please send me any feedback you have, this is by no means a comprehensive guide or finished product.

Re: [Videolib] Good Night and Good Luck
Gary, I think Newton's quote, If I have seen further it is by standing on ye sholders of Giants fits this occasion best. As a relative newcomer to the profession, I owe you a great debt of gratitude for contributing significantly to the development and sustainibility of our institutions (VRT, NMM, VideoLib, MRC Site, to name a few) and at the professional level, for helping to instill in me a respect for the craftsmanship of media bibliography, and the criticality of media preservation, media copyright, media advocacy, and damnit, you gotta just get the instructor what they need. Finally, thank you most of all for helping me to understand that the voices of oracles able to swiftly provide responses to I need exemplar titles with tracking shots of Paris, suggestions? will fall silent without advocacy for media. Business models and copyright debates considered, I am entirely optimistic that we are entering a rich era where our users will increasingly engage with media in a number of ways, some very different and most very exciting. Hopefully, building off some of the foundations you (and other modern founders) have helped lay we can continue to lead in this transition through familiar and emerging roles.

[Videolib] University Theatre instructional video collections support?
Hi Everyone, I am now working with our Theater Librarian and a Theater faculty member to improve discovery and collection development of instructional theater videos, with an emphasis on performance (for now). In terms of discovery, to supplement our general a/v guides, this will include the development of a guide with catalog links to various facets of performance videos (to increase discovery beyond the cataloging). Gary's guide provides a nice start on some classifications and a Theater grad. student staff/Theater Librarian will provide even more granularity. To assist in this process, can anyone recommend an exemplar Theater video guide with more sub-classes than the MRC? Second, we would like to audit the collection in collaboration with the Theatre Dept. to determine if our video collection is meeting their needs and would like to provide suggestions to certain titles that we may not already own. Does anyone feel their theater instructional video collection is particularly distinctive and/or would cite one that is in terms of breadth and depth of performance videos (e.g., direction, technical how to, stage performance, international performance, famous performances, acting technique) from which to reconcile for consideration? To be clear, I am not looking for suggestions on any specific titles or streaming video packages at this point (please no vendor email), simply trying to audit this part of our collection and related services as a terrific engagement outreach opportunity.

[Videolib] Looking for Faces of Japan PBS series..
Howdy folks, I'm fairly positive it is out of print, but does anyone know where I might be able to score copies of the 26 part (1987-1988) PBS series, Faces of Japan narrated by Dick Cavett, produced by TeleJapan USA?

[Videolib] Experience with Video Quality Evaluation?
Hi Everyone, This seems like a question straight out of a media librarian's handbook, but I am going to ask it anyways. We are about to house a collection of approx. 200 videos of Peruvian prison dissident government satire plays from our Latin American Studies department. Due to the sensitive nature of this ephemera material use will be restricted to on-site viewing. Given that they are currently mostly in VHS format we are looking at outsourcing conversion to DVD for longer term access, not necessarily of archival quality (I would prefer to digitize for streaming, but it is not in the cards right now). I have been asked to examine some of the DVDs that have already been encoded and compare with the VHS copy for quality to determine if we should have the whole batch redone for consistency or if those already converted are of high enough quality. Is anyone familiar with a relatively straightforward technical test to make this assessment, in the absence of color bars? Is a more objective test even necessary, or would a perceptual evaluation be sufficient?

3 day loans, with circulation student staff leeway to extend up to 14 days provided there are no bookings in the Aleph Booking Module (auto-prevents extension beyond X hours of advanced booking). Beyond that, all patrons need to request an extension or renewal through the Multimedia Consultant, which is granted on a case-by-case basis pending demand. On some titles that are instructor specific, we have extended up to a month. We have a limit of 2 renewals typically, but for more than 2 weeks we often will suggest short term or semester long course reserves, with the understanding that we may be requesting to mediate, with instructor permission, a short term loan to another instructor for class screening or patron viewing onsite in the case of reserves.

[Videolib] Experience with asiapacificfilms.com streaming service?
Hi Everyone, Continuing the theme of streaming collection services, one of our librarians recently received a trial offer for the Asia Pacific Films streaming service, and I was wondering if anyone could speak to personal experience as it related to the quality of this resource and if so, who the audience is for it it at your school? Our institutional context is that we have the Ames Collection which is a special collection dedicated to south asian materials, but we do not have a South Asian department and from my understanding, limited course offerings specifically related to Asian Studies. That said, there may be subject content here that is applicable to other disciplines, I am just not familiar with these titles. Feel free to contact me offline or respond here.

I am not dealing with this kind of situation myself, so whether I am OK with a 50 sec. clip is not relevant. It looks, though, as if the librarians have given it some thought and believe the 50 sec. clip is fair use. I gather that a 78 rpm disc could not hold much more than 3 minutes/side (I recall that Soliloquy from Carousel required 2 sides), while a 45 could hold up to 5 min/side. If the songs were performed to maximize disc length, presumably 50 sec = about 30% of a 78 (more likely to be PD) or 20% of a 45. The librarians may have felt precisely that 50 sec is enough to help researchers identify what they want to hear but a small enough clip not to replace the market value of the whole song. --Judy I'm engaging here, not challenging, trying not to be my usual glib self. So, Judy, you're OK with the 50 sec. clip aspect of this collection, I take it, even for non-PD recordings? Those orphans, etc.? The rest of it, including full renditions, is available to legitimate UCLA users, and I imagine anyone who wanted to be working on the material in depth would want to be in the collection itself, as you point out. re: Strachwitz/Frontera. The 50 sec. clip combined with the label views of each record, and the indexing, is compelling for research at a distance. -- next part -- An HTML attachment scrubbed and removed.

[Videolib] Circulating locally captioned versions of film?
Howdy folks, I have a fun one for the community to discuss, and I would like to get your feedback. As I mentioned before, our campus Disability Services (DS) recently started a video captioning unit. They always seek permissions from the rights holder prior to captioning, apparently required by our Counsel. Until now, from my understanding, the resulting copy in whatever medium has always been given to the hearing impaired student. However, for the upcoming semester, I have a faculty member who would like for us to purchase 2 copies of a film series that is being sold directly from the filmmaker, that has not and will not be captioned. This faculty member is requesting the titles be captioned by DS, in this case for international students in her class to better understand complex foreign relations concepts, not a hearing impaired student. Further, the students will be required to watch these titles outside of class this semester, so the titles will likely be on library reserve, which would break new ground for us from a policy perspective. Thus far, the Libraries have not been involved in dealing with modified/captioned copies of original content. We are considering this because the instructor (and others) will be using the videos every year in their classes, and this discipline has some hearing impaired students as well as several non-native speakers. Three questions: 1) Does anyone currently circulate captioned/locally modified copies of commercial content in their collection? You can contact me offline, if you think this is sensitive information. 2) What does our filmmaker/producer/distributor community think about the possibility of circulating captioned copies in our general collection? Would your thoughts change if the rights holder gave permission to caption because they could not and originals were made inaccessible so as not to impact market forces? I have considered having our Acquisitions Dept. request a captioning waiver written into the purchase agreement, but I am ethically uncomfortable with making captioning a contract condition. I believe captioning should be protected as an anti-circumvention exemption and covered under fair use (if not ADA), points I may submit for consideration during the next round of Hearings.

Re: [Videolib] [Videonews] Here we go again...
Christine, I was asking myself the exact same thing so I did a little digging. Though I am certainly no lawyer (take this with several grains of salt) there appears to be some strong, potentially related case law where online published terms of service have been enforced (however, not necessarily in a First Sale Doctrine context) (see: http://www.brookspierce.com/news-publications-42.html). These laws appear to vary somewhat by state, and state and federal courts have occasionally ruled against the seller, so you are right to ask Chris. The legal wording, notice, and mechanism for agreeing to terms appears to have been a consideration in these decisions. Accordingly, I agree with consensus that demands for higher payment post-purchase may not be legally enforceable when a home viewing copy is purchased from a major online retailer like Amazon (depending on stated notice at the point of purchase). When it comes to some of the smaller distributor sites, as noted, legal enforceability gets fairly nuanced, but may lean towards seller enforceability.

[Videolib] Have you seen De Soto?
Hi Everyone, We have a faculty member looking for the title, Death March to De Soto as our copy is just about dead, at least audibly. The catalog record says it was released in 1998 - though I believe this is likely in fact the same program originally broadcasted on The Learning Channel in 1993. Assuming they are the same, the producer was Arkios Productions and the title appears to have only been released on VHS and distributed by Films, but no longer available in their catalog per Films website and phone customer service (Doug, can you confirm?). Does anyone know where we might be able to secure a copy? The faculty member mentioned this title is vital to her class (and according to our circ. history, several others!) and has resulted in spurring good quality discussion - always a good thing!

What's going on with the company you mention is that they are mixing the two things up. They are clueless about what Public Performance and (particularly) fair use are all about...they're 100% off the mark. They CAN, however, define the types of uses allowed with purchase. Again, what's going on has to do with contracts, not copyright. Gary Handman Good Morning, I am trying to purchase a set of dvds from a company who seems to have their own definition of what is allowed with face to face teaching. Here is what one must agree to when checking out online. (among other things). Public Performance / Fair Use: Unless authorized in writing, our courses are NOT licensed Public Performance, such as showing in a classroom. However, we consider less than a total of 30 minutes of classroom display as Fair Use, and actually a kind of PR, so thank you very much! But for longer use, we kindly ask that you get a Public Performance License. Just to clarify, we would be happy to pay the extra $150 for a PPR license but this is what they define as PPR. In the Shop menu select Public Performance Licenses - Single Teacher, and add to your shopping cart. Does anyone have an suggestions as to how to approach this.

[Videolib] Academic libraries with dedicated privileged media search boxes?
Collective brains, Our library is undergoing a website redesign using Drupal CMS, and fortunately, the web design team has decided to privilege media search/ discovery (images, audio, video) on a tab right along side books and journals/articles. I have been charged with leading on consulting the design of this tab. Within the media tab, I am planning to have 3 sub tabs for video, images, and audio, each a little different reflected by the ways in which the respective media is discovered by their users. I am also proposing to add some additional functionality for federated search based on what we can technically offer (somewhat limited). From a video perspective, this also provides us an opportunity to not only offer traditional catalog video search, but perhaps promote/ search intergrate some licensed streaming content (mostly in the catalog already), our Media Services, and a for now, a link to curated open video collections. For an example of what I am describing please see USC's Images tab using Webfeat: http://www.usc.edu/libraries/ Please share some innovative media search interfaces at yours or other institutions. So far, the only institutions I have found that have explicitly dedicated media search on the main page at the same level as books/journals are UofTexas (CD/DVD), UofWashington (Audio and Video - no Image), USC (Image only), Uof Illinois (Media), Kansas (Images search off to the left side).

Re: [Videolib] Academic libraries with dedicated privileged media search boxes?
Thanks Tom, That's exactly the type of example I am seeking! If you would be so kind, I understand that you were unable to get cross-search functionality of databases, but is there a reason why you chose not to list your music/video service info. and perhaps links to select video and music collections? While being sensitive to information overload (say filling the entire tab), this kind of information would seem to be helpful to the user for serendipitous discovery.

I assumed that is who you were referring to re pricing. Both Criterions do it too. I think small companies, Kino, Milestone, Zeitgeist would probably do it for a fairly reasonable fee. I remain cynical of streaming for feature films because there are far too many that can not be licensed and probably never will be, including Chaplin films, the majority of foreign language films etc. I think the studio product may well come down to a reasonable price but unless the course in question is Warner Bros films of the 30s, you won't be able to clear many of the titles.

Re: [Videolib] YouTube to offer [and target] Indie/educational filmrental..Thoughts?
Really Gary? Focusing on the technology? I agree it matters a lot - if you assume that is the same quality experience paying folk will receive - but let's not focus on the ants and miss the elephant in the room. To address the technology issue, however: I don't have a great deal of experience with retail streaming services, but I know YouTube offers H.264 on some of their stuff (and I would certainly assume if YouTube is looking at this seriously to make money, they will strive to offer at least SD if not HD 720 @ full-size on rentals with an eye on improving quality). Honestly, I don't have a strong feeling either way, but the topic was thrown out there to get perspectives on: impact and development of new business models; consumer attitude - ubiquity of YouTube use in the classroom (ignoring it doesn't make it so); and the cachet from particularly, an indie film producers' perspective, of distributing content through highly-respected distributers.
