The professor is teaching an entirely online course and wants to stream a few full length feature films for the students. These films would only be accessible though a closed password encrypted system. I informed him that at best he could steam a clip or two (for that is protected both by fair use and the TEACH Act) but digitizing and streaming a full feature film would violate copyright. I then informed him that obtaining streaming rights for feature films is next to impossible. Did I give this professor correct information? thanks jhs John H.
