Re: [Videolib] What is in a name?! an XLR by any other name sounds just as grounded

There's a smallish teaching media library which grew out of the old Audiovisual dept. which maintained both projectors and films. It was the Film Library, and then the Media Library. Now it has come under the control of Film Studies and they renamed it FMR (that's what's on the door, with no

Nahum, I misspoke when I summarized the law. When you sell a copy, your right to control how the buyer disposes of that particular copy is exhausted. However, other rights remain with you. The buyer does *not* get the right to make copies of the DVD, show it in public or on TV, or adapt it
