I am looking for information on copyright laws and using videos found on the web as stimuli in an experiment.  An student of mine needs an ~8 minute video clip to serve essentially as a filler task in an experiment.  She came up with the freely available BMW clips from http://usa.bmwfilms.com/ that are short stories of a James Bond like person doing something wonderful for the world while zooming around in one of their cars.  This is a snippet of what the site says about the clips:

Thoughts? Advice? 
 
Thanks kindly
